That’s when Rainy opened a pack of herring and the moment she held a fish in her hand and threw it in the air, the eagles were on it. Clearly used to these more or less unex‐pected feeds, both eagles soon circled the boat, as if they were begging for more. We watched harbor seals sunbathing on little inlets, and when we passed by the Back Island Naval Facility we witnessed to our surprise a submarine emerging from the waters of the deep Behm Canal.

travels for a while with a group of transient hippies and ends up in Shephard Canyon. His journey becomes solo once again as he leaves the group and wanders to a place called Diamond Canyon. Stumbling onto a deserted cabin among the Redwoods, in a primordial forest of the Oakland Hills, he finds solace in this remote, soothing environment.

As he explores the cabin and surrounding area, Cincinnatus feels a connection with the abundance of nature “the landscape makes me feel alive” he thought, and decides to stay. After discovering art supplies in the cabin while also getting inspiration from the breathtaking world of nature all around him, he begins painting the trees and whittling phases of the moon. Could Cincinnatus Jones be an artist?

Eventually, his life of solitude is interrupted when the owner, Patsy Billie Vaughan, arrives at her cabin, which once belonged to her father. After an uncomfortable meeting their initial fear of each other subsides. With the eventual realization that they are both loners looking for solitude, they settle for a bit of quiet companionship. Although Patsy doesn’t seem to recognize him, she informs Cincinnatus that she is a former schoolteacher for the Warden's and Officer's children on Alcatraz Island. Working and living in San Francisco, and using the cabin only on weekends, she decides that he can stay. And so, their relationship begins.

But, can he trust her? Does she actually know who he really is? Can he ever reveal his true identity? These questions become quite disturbing for Cincinnatus as their relationship gets stronger. However, the visiting ghosts, who appear while Patsy is away, are the real catalyst for his pondering. Quite an array of them make appearances: some from California's railway days, pioneers

and a separate poolside powder room. To finish it off, there's a covered front porch, rear covered pool seating and dining area and central air conditioning. Close to all. EXCLUSIVE -Contact Susan Ceslow 631.335.0777

ELEGANT ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY

HOME - New construction 2022-Set in the privacy of Hither Woods, this six bedroom, four and a half bathroom offers contemporary sophistication while staying true to the open and free and environmentally friendly spirit of Montauk. The 5,155 sq. ft. two story home has it all with its 28,000 watt roof mounted solar panels, and high efficiency HVAC. Each room has its own individually controlled zone thermostat for maxim comfort and the house has Low E Anderson windows with heat lock coatings for maximum energy performance whether enjoying this home in summer or winter. Walking through the contemporary styled entrance reveals an open expansive living room with high ceilings, a dining room with a long slate table that seats twelve directly adjacent to a large open, fully appointed, California style kitchen. The living room, dining room and kitchen all have views

of the environment, jazz and blues musicians of Oakland's Bottom. But the deep reflection and internal conflict of trust, and forgiveness of self is really examined as another level of ghostly beings begin to arrive.

Nanci’s ability to intertwine some very prominent cultural figures of the times through the ghostly lessons is uncanny; Provoking self‐reflection on a journey to true freedom, with a twist. Not one therapist, but many visitors offering food for thought‐ what exactly are they trying to teach him? What exactly is the author encouraging the reader to reflect upon? Through this creatively crafted story, Nanci touches upon many social issues of the 60’s, that no surprise are still prevalent today.

One of my favorite self‐reflection moments from Cincinnatus, while alone in the cabin, happens just a bit after meeting Patsy: “I can see the birds now. The sunrise, I paint the moon. I am no old sage who gives advice, but if I were, I know what I would say to anyone suffering while trying to figure out this life. ‘Live your life in a way that dares to reveal you to yourself and others. A way that sets your true self free. Don’t hide from your loved ones, that’s stingy. That is a kind of prison where you sentence yourself.’”

As Nanci says, “Scape Ghost is the perfect escape.” Be sure to read the book; join Cincinnatus on his escape and quest for a new beginning.

Born and raised in Brooklyn, Nanci resides in East Hampton with her husband Jim. Scape Ghost is her fourth book, following the two Montauk themed books: Cheap Fish and the bitter end, as well as Within a Whisper a co‐authored work, with her husband James and Caroline Upcher ‐ a joint effort about the love story and rescue of their marriage, and Refuge ‐ which follows a diverse group of women who have left abusive marriages and childhoods behind and banded together as they create new lives.

HEALTH TIPS...

Continued from Page 54

5. Take advantage of fresh seasonal veggies. Load up skewers with mushrooms, peppers, cherry toma‐toes, zucchini, yellow squash or other veggies.

6. Pack and play for when you are taking the family on a road trip. De‐sign physical activity by bringing equipment such as a soccer ball, fris‐bee or paddle ball to have mini fam‐ily sporting events.

7. Homemade snacks such as fruit pops made with low sugar juices or mashed up fruit like peaches, grapes, berries or watermelon and put into paper cups, insert a popsicle stick and freeze overnight. These are much health‐ier than store bought, heavily sweetened frozen treats.

8. Protect yourself from the sun. Wear wide brimmed hats, always apply water‐resistant sunscreen with at least SPF 15 and reapply sunscreen
