Today we had a visit from Max's friend Barbara Agatstein who was able to report on how retirement is going and offer some good tips to those of us who have yet to reach that happy juncture. Barbara is a South Fork resident now and had a number of thoughts about locations for lunch. Unfortunately, as one restauranteur put it, "Everyone's busy trying to line up staff and get the place ready for opening next week". Max is unfortunately experiencing our typical vacation karma which requires that all events and locations of interest be closed just before we arrive or open just after our departure. So after wandering from one establishment to another - several noted as open on Yelp (Yelpers beware) - we finally found ourselves back at Bliss which offers a reliably tasty, if not elegant lunch. Along the way, we noted some local "art" (see photos). The rest of the day was spent lounging, reading, and napping to further our goal to de-stress. Cocktail hour has now begun. Will check in again tomorrow.
