Drag Queen Story Hour draws mixed reviews from PJ community Library director open to hosting event again, though no plans currently in place to do so

A Port Jefferson Free Library event aimed at promoting inclusion and diversity achieved its goal for some but also inspired the opposite reaction from others. The library hosted an event entitled Drag Queen Story Hour Sept. 22, during which a drag queen trained by children’s librarians reads picture books, sings songs and leads children ages 3 to 8 in craft activities. The event took place at the PJFL and about 100 people attended, according to Tom Donlon, library director. The organization, Drag Queen Story Hour, has chapters across the United States and conducts the events in an effort to capture “the imagination and play of the gender fluidity of childhood and gives kids glamorous, positive and unabashedly queer role models. In spaces like this, kids are able to see people who defy rigid gender restrictions and imagine a world where people can present as they wish, where dress up is real,” according to its website. The library promoted the event on its online calendar as “a program that raises awareness of gender diversity, promotes self-acceptance and builds empathy through an enjoyable literary

experience.” During “I don’t know a the event in Port Jeff lot about living in Sept. 22, several prothis community as an testers stood outside adult,” said Kyleen the library holding Burke, a 2008 gradusigns and verbalizing ate of Port Jeff schools, their opposition to exwho said she has just posing children to the recently moved back message promoted by to the community as the event. an adult. “I was thrilled Donlon said the to learn about this proboard of trustees got gram because going the idea from a patron to school in Port Jeff of the library who schools, it was a realsaid they had heard ly small district, and I of the events taking watched kids who diplace elsewhere. verted from the norm “We liked it bein any way get bullied cause the program was and not feel representjust about diversity,” ed here unfortunately he said.

here to see it.” Others, stressed their concerns about the event didn’t come from a place of hate or discrimination. Ruben Cruzate, a resident who said he participated in the protests, said his picture and contact information had been circulated on social media, leading to harassment and attacks, he said. “The reason I’m here is because I’ve never experienced such hate and intolerance,” he said, attributing his experience following the protests to members of the LGBTQ+ community. “I understand all kinds of positions, and we love people, but please don’t mess around with the kids.” Children’s librarian Margaret Smith said to the board during the meeting the event was a “joyful” occasion featuring sing-alongs and stories about inclusion. “Thank you for your courage and for sticking with this program that was proposed, investigated and was planned,” she said. Smith and Donlon each said the library plans to hold “story hour” events with people from other walks of life on a monthly basis going forward. While no date has been set, Donlon said the library is open to hosting Drag Queen Story Hour again if the community is interested.

Boys battling cancer sworn in as SCPD officers for a day

Three young boys battling cancer have long been fascinated with police, and Sept. 19 they got the opportunity to immerse themselves in the lives of law enforcement officers. Suffolk County Police Commissioner Geraldine Hart and Chief of Department Stuart Cameron swore in Zachary Cote, 9, and Jesse Pallas, 11, of Miller Place, and Sean Hughes, 10, from Port Jefferson as SCPD officers for the day during a surprise ceremony at police headquarters in Yaphank. Sean’s brother, Kyle, 8, also joined for the day’s events. “It’s hard to put into words what our kids go through every day, but when we see a child smiling and this excited, it’s these things that will stick with them,” said Fariba Pallas, Jesse’s mother. Each held up their hand as Hart asked them to repeat the words to be sworn in. Once she reached the end, she smiled and said, “Welcome to the department, boys.” Already used to repeating what she said, they repeated her again, “Welcome to the department, boys,” the young officers said in tandem. The swearing in was a surprise for both the kids and their parents. The adults thought their children would be meeting for a tour of the police department, but instead the kids got to join the ranks of the adults in blue. Pallas said her son has been in the hospital for nearly half his life after being diagnosed with leukemia in 2011. She said being sworn in as an officer was a big moment for him. Pallas asked her son who is his superhero. “Police,” the young man shouted. “He wants to be a police officer every Halloween,” she said. The families originally met at an event hosted by the Thomas Scully Foundation in 2017, a nonprofit with the mission of brightening the lives of kids fighting cancer, and both the parents and kids bonded over their shared experiences. Melanie Hughes, Sean and Kyle’s mother, said that the kids did not have to talk to each other about their experiences, because they all know without having to say. “It’s really sad to see kids go through what they have to go through to fight for their lives,” Hughes said. “Just to see the smile on [Sean’s] face, he’s a very happy boy today.” The idea came about from county police Sgt. Patrick Kelly, who met the kids and their families during the annual Long Island 2-day breast cancer walk in Shirley. The officer was so humbled by their enthusiasm for local police he decided to do whatever he could to make a special day for the kids, he said. “Once the word got out everyone stepped up to the plate and wanted to be a part of this,” Kelly said. “These kids are unbelievable. They’ve gone through more in their lives than I could even

imagine of going through.” After the swearing in ceremony, the kids were taken outside to experience a number of police department activities, including working alongside detectives from the Identification Section; meeting with Emergency Service Section officers; and checking out Highway Patrol cars and a police helicopter. The Suffolk County K-9 unit brought out a number of their dogs for the kids to meet. Officer Brendan Gayer, a member of the K-9 unit, had

quite a lot of experience with the kids, especially Jesse who has had a long standing passion for the dogs, collecting baseball cards with the names and pictures of the unit’s many hounds. “I met Jesse years ago and he approached me, and he was infatuated with my dog,” Gayer said. “He just loves them.” At the end of the day, the kids were presented with a proclamation followed by a walkout ceremony usually reserved for retiring high-ranking

members of the department. All three of the young cancer patients have long been enamored with the police department. Zachary’s father Glenn Cote said ever since his child was little he would make “awooga” sounds every time a police car passed by. “As long as he’s been able to talk he’s looked up to the police department,” Cote said. “This is a really special day for him to be around a bunch of people that he wants to grow up to be.”

Torrential rain floods Port Jeff BY ALEX PETROSKI & KYLE BARR Those strolling through Port Jefferson Village on the morning of Sept. 26 couldn’t stride too far without hearing the distinct sound of Shop-Vacs. The area was hit with more than 4 inches of rain during the evening into the night Sept. 25, according to the National Weather Service, leading to severe flooding in Port Jefferson Village. The intense rain storm flooded businesses, the Port Jefferson Fire Department and even forced emergency evacuations from Theatre Three. Fire department Chief Brennan Holmes said water levels on the department’s grounds on Maple Place reached about 5 feet high. “The problem with this was it was 4 inches of rain in an hour and a half, so it rose so quickly that a chief’s car got stuck in a flash flood, we couldn’t get the trucks out,” he said Wednesday morning as cleanup efforts were already well underway. He added he had just spoken to Brookhaven Town Highway Superintendent Dan Losquadro (R), whose department was helping out with the cleanup effort. “I think we took 10 people out of flooded cars.” Christian Neubert, a member of the fire department, said around 8 p.m. Tuesday night people were trapped in their cars in the vicinity of Wynn Lane, as well as others on Liberty Avenue near Port Jefferson High School. Holmes said between 7:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. the department responded to 14 alarms related to the flooding. In addition to damage to at least one department car, Holmes said the radio room also flooded, sustaining damage that was still being assessed Wednesday. “We had a lot of stuff damaged,” Holmes said. “Usually [some flooding is] easily mitigated. We’re good with that. We get the trucks out and up the hill. This just came so fast and so quick and

so much that it was tough.” Theatre Three was inundated with water during the storm. The deluge left a watermark 4 feet high in the theater’s basement, high enough to nearly pour over the bar and stools used for the theater’s comedy nights. Theatre Three president, Andrew Markowitz, said the flooding started around 7:30 p.m. Sept. 25. The water reached high enough to muddy the costumes and props the theater was to use in this upcoming Friday’s production of “The Addams Family,” many of which will have to be quickly replaced. Worse still, much of the theater’s lighting apparatus was stored downstairs, and personnel were still determining what needed to be repaired or replaced Wednesday. “We have a lot of volunteers who are helping out, but anyone who wants to come down and clean they are welcome,” Markowitz said. The office on a lower floor used by Jeffrey Sanzel, the theater’s executive artistic director, was nearly submerged. The small office contained innumerable books, original stage CONTINUED ON A10

Funding for LIRR electrification feasibility study coming together An idea decades in the making could take a major step forward by the end of 2018. It still may be years before electrification happens, if it ever happens at all, but momentum is building toward funding being secured for a study determining the feasibility of electrifying the Long Island Rail Road on the Port Jefferson line from Huntington to the stations east by the end of this year. Mitchell Pally, the Suffolk County representative on the Metropolitan Transit Authority’s board of trustees, said the LIRR has already appropriated funds to support the study, adding that state Sen. Ken LaValle (R-Port Jefferson) has also succeeded in appropriating state funds toward the plan. “The support of the communities involved is essential to making this work,” Pally said in an interview. “The rail road is very supportive.” Community support for exploring the possibility of electrifying the line, which currently allows trains to run on diesel fuel east of Huntington, has been building in recent years, although the idea has been on the radar for North Shore residents at least as far back as the 1980s. Anthony Figliola, an East Setauket resident,

former Brookhaven Town deputy supervisor and vice president of Empire Government Strategies, a company that provides strategic counsel on governmental relations and practices to municipalities, has been leading a community coalition advocating for a feasibility study for about the last year, he said. The group, which Figliola said has been informally calling itself the North Shore Business Alliance, has been lobbying elected officials and community organizations like civic associations and chambers of commerce throughout the relevant territories in an effort to build public support for and attention on the idea. Figliola said he hopes the funding for a study will be in place by the end of the year. The study is expected to cost approximately $12 million, he said. “It’s ripe, the community wants it,” Figliola said. “We’re very grateful for all that Mitch is doing to advocate on behalf of this.” Figliola identified Charlie Lefkowitz, vice president of the Three Village Chamber of Commerce and real estate developer, as one of the other community members leading the charge for electrification. “It’s a long time coming,” Lefkowitz said of progress on the feasibility study. “It was a collaborative effort on many fronts. The direct beneficiaries of it will be the communities.”

The feasibility of electrifying the Port Jefferson Long Island Rail Road line to Huntington could soon be examined.

The study would examine how much faster trains on the North Shore line would reach Penn Station in Manhattan with electrification from Port Jeff and select a new railroad yard to house the electric trains, among other logistical particulars. Currently, the LIRR yard is off Hallock Avenue in Port Jefferson, though several officials have indicated electrification would require the relocation of that yard and the Port Jeff train station. The former site of Lawrence Aviation Industries has been suggested as a possible new yard and train station. On April 4 Huntington Town Supervisor Chad Lupinacci (R), Brookhaven Town Supervisor Ed Romaine (R) and Smithtown Town Supervisor Ed

Wehrheim (R) sent a joint letter to the New York State Legislature’s Long Island delegation to express their support for the feasibility study due to potential economic and environmental benefits. They cited that the Port Jefferson and Huntington branch lines have the highest ridership, about 18.7 million annually, of any line in the LIRR service territory, according to the LIRR Annual Ridership Report for 2015. Figliola said his coalition had lobbied for the support of the three supervisors. “I think it has legs,” state Assemblyman Steve Englebright (D-Setauket) said of electrification. “It’s such a good idea that I think it should happen.”

Port Jefferson and Northport-East Northport school districts, as well as the Town of Huntington, were dealt a blow in the legal battle against Long Island Power Authority in August. But, it doesn’t mean they are going down without a fight. Port Jeff board of education voted unanimously — 6-0 with board President Kathleen Brennan absent — during a Sept. 24 special meeting to file an appeal of New York State Supreme Court Justice Elizabeth Emerson’s Aug. 16 ruling that LIPA “made no promises” to the Town of Huntington, Northport-East Northport and Port Jefferson school districts not to challenge the taxes levied on its power stations. Huntington Town Attorney Nick Ciappetta said the municipality formally filed its appeal of Emerson’s decision the following day, Sept. 25. The judge’s ruling dismissed the third-party lawsuits brought forth by Huntington and the two school districts which alleged LIPA broke a promise by seeking to reduce the power plant’s taxes by 90 percent. The resolution passed by Port Jeff school board authorized its legal counsel, Ingerman Smith LLP of Hauppauge, to file the appeal. “We do think her decision was incorrect, and clearly we do recommend that the board consider filing a notice of appeal in this proceeding,” said

York State Appellate Division of the Supreme Court. Further appeals are possible following that decision. Gross said the process could take more than a year. Meanwhile, Huntington Town, Northport-East Northport school district, LIPA and National Grid have agreed to pursue nonbinding mediation relating to the case, which begins Sept. 26. Gross said while Port Jeff is not a party to the mediation, it will be monitoring the outcome because the process could establish a pattern of resolution for its case. He also said the district can withdraw its appeal at any time, but once that occurs it cannot rejoin the process. “Legal actions taken by the Town [of Brookhaven], [Port Jefferson] Village and school district to generate an equitable solution to the LIPA tax assessment challenges are intended to protect its residents and children against exorbitant property tax increases; especially in a very short interval of time,” Port Jeff school district said in a publicly released letter dated Sept. 13 prior to passing a resolution authorizing the appeal. “Please know, that the district fully understands that the decision about engaging legal counsel is one to be made with great care, as it always carries a financial implication while never guaranteeing a verdict in one’s favor.”

scripts and stage props, many of which Sanzel said were completely ruined by the rushing waters. He estimated several thousand dollars worth of items were destroyed. However, their loss means much more to him on a personal level. “I spend more time in that office than I do in my own house, and everything in my desk, from my shelves down, is gone,” Sanzel said, his pants stained with mud. “The personal stuff — it’s just gone, I’ve never seen it like this. But then again, we could be in the Carolinas, you have to put things in proportion.” At the same time the theater was hosting about 40 children and their families in auditions for its yearly portrayal of “A Christmas

Carol.” Since the kids had nowhere to go with the several-foot-deep waters outside, Sanzel said they simply continued on with the auditions in order to keep the kids calm. Holmes indicated that while the flooding was catastrophic, it occurred during low tide. When asked what this storm might have looked like had it happened during high tide, the chief responded, “We don’t want to know.” Markowitz said Theatre Three is still waiting for the assessment on total damages, but he feared the cost could be astronomical. He said the theater would work hard over the next days to make sure the production of “The Addams Family” goes on, despite the flooding. “The show must go on,” he said. Donations are already pouring in, and theater operators said they have received close to $5,000 just in the morning hours after the flood.

Town

Brookhaven to purchase new pump-out boats for Mount Sinai, Port Jeff harbors

BY KYLE BARR KYLE@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

Brookhaven’s current pump-out boats are showing signs of wear and will be replaced.

KYLE BARR

If you’ve ever seen a boat with a built-in toilet, the next question is inevitable: Where does that waste inevitably go? Either the waste goes straight into the Long Island Sound or surrounding harbors or boaters call the Town of Brookhaven’s pump-out boats, a service provided by the town for free, to suck out the waste, according to Karl Guyer, a senior bay constable for Brookhaven. At Brookhaven town’s Sept. 13 meeting the board voted unanimously to purchase two new pump-out boats — one for Mount Sinai Harbor and one for Port Jefferson Harbor. The total cost for both boats is $92,500 with $60,000 of that amount coming from state aid in grant funding from the New York State Environmental Facilities Corporation. The town is supplying $32,500 in matching funds from serial bonds, according to town Councilwoman Jane Bonner (C-Rocky Point). The town operates four pump-out boats, including two on the South Shore and two on the North Shore, which are located in Port Jeff and Mount Sinai harbors. All these boats were purchased in 2006, and Guyer said it was time all of them were replaced. The two on the South Shore were replaced this year, and the North Shore boats

will be replaced early in 2019, according to Guyer. “They’ve been in service for quite a number of years and they’re at the end of their life span,” Guyer said. The pump-out boat in Port Jeff Harbor is showing signs of long use. The paint on the boat’s deck has been worn down by years of work, and there are cracks showing in some of the plastic hatches around the boat. William Demorest, the bay constable for Port Jeff Harbor, said the new boats will be made from aluminum, which should give them a longer life span. The pump-out boat service is widely used by the boaters in both harbors, and on a busy day town employees operating the boats can service hundreds of boats in a single day. People can call for a pump out by radioing the constable’s office on channel 73. There is a manual boat waste pump in a barge inside Port Jeff Harbor, though the constable said 75 percent of the over 700 boats that come to port on summer weekends use the pump-out boat service. After the pump-out boats are docked for the winter, all North Shore boaters are required to manually pump out their own waste. Bonner said these boats do a major service in cleaning out the tanks of many boaters, because dumping the waste into the coastal waters only adds to the islands growing water pollution problem.

“Not only would there be waste in the water but the nitrogen load would be crazy,” Bonner said. “It would take several tides to flush that out.” All the water from Conscience Bay through Port Jefferson Harbor as well as the entire Long Island Sound is within mandated U.S. Environmental Protection Agency No-Discharge Zones, meaning it is illegal to dump any boat waste into the surrounding waters. While Demorest said he hasn’t seen people dumping their waste into the water himself, he has heard reports of it being done. He said he believed the vast majority use the free pump-out service. “If we don’t see it, there’s nothing we can do about it,” he said. Many areas of the North Shore are experienc-

ing waves of hypoxia, an increase of nitrogen in the water that deprives sea life, both plants and animals, of oxygen. During a press conference Sept. 25, co-director of the Center for Clean Water Technology Christopher Gobler and other researchers from the Long Island Clean Water Partnership concluded there were cases of harmful algae blooms in harbors from Mount Sinai all the way to Huntington, another symptom of excess nitrogen in the water. Most of that nitrogen has come from cesspools and septic tanks from people’s homes slowly leaking into the surrounding waters. The boats usually operate Friday, Saturday and Sunday mostly by high school and college-aged summer employees, according to Guyer. The pumpout boat service ends on Columbus Day, Oct. 8.

Opinion

Editorial

Picking up speed

Most passengers on the Long Island Rail Road probably have one wish — to get to their destination quicker. This desire has been uttered for decades on the Port Jefferson line where commuters headed to the Big Apple or Nassau County need to change trains since tracks are only electrified west of Huntington, with diesel fuel powering all trains east. While we’re more optimistic than ever that the wish may be granted, we must admit we’re only cautiously optimistic. While the Long Island trains may never reach speeds of those in Japan, China and France, which travel at more than 200 mph, officials and community members are working harder than ever toward the goal of electrification. Both the Metropolitan Transit Authority and state Sen. Ken LaValle (R-Port Jefferson) have appropriated funds to support a study of the feasibility of electrifying the line, and a group of community members, informally called the North Shore Business Alliance, is advocating for the study by not only lobbying elected officials, but also presenting the benefits to civic associations and chambers of commerce along Suffolk County’s North Shore. There are a lot of people on board to move things forward. Electrifying the rails means more than getting in and out of the city quicker, it also means living on Long Island and community would be more appealing. Hopefully, it would keep people here and draw more to the area. It would make commuting to work in the city easier, where salaries tend to be higher and opportunities more abundant. For those traveling east, it would decrease the time for traveling to Stony Brook University. However, as we have said before, we are cautiously optimistic. While the study will look at how much faster trains can go, it will also look to see if electrification makes sense financially, something we Long Islanders need to understand. The winding nature of the Port Jeff line presents a set of logistical troubles as well. There is still a possibility electrification may not make economic sense, which stands to reason as it has been discussed for generations. In 2000, one study estimated it would cost $500 million to electrify the Port Jefferson line from Huntington to the end. There’s also a change some communities may not welcome as they may foresee problems that might arise from faster trains, one being that many towns may not want more people living in their areas, citing traffic problems and perhaps more multihouse units being constructed or development. But back to the positive side of the coin, faster trains may actually mean less cars on the road especially on the Long Island Expressway and Northern State Parkway as more may find taking the train easier. There will also be those who now live on the North Shore who opt to take trains out of Ronkonkoma but now can head to the station closer to their home. We may not know what the feasibility study will turn up but moving it forward will increase the odds of one day either riding a faster train or finally putting the dream to rest.

Letters to the editor

Keeping score on apartment green space I read with great interest the Aug. 23 article in The Port Times Record entitled “Port Jeff moves to reduce recreation fee for Shipyard apartments.” It appears that this may also be the case involving Rail Realty’s The Hills apartments, situated on Texaco Avenue. These two corporations, Tritec and Rail Realty, are being assessed reduced recreational fees. Fees that are needed to offset the cost to create and maintain public recreational facilities used by all, including the hundreds for recent apartment dwellers. If using the formula recently established, Rail Realty ought to be paying a $105,000 fee to the village based on 74 units developed at The Hills, and Tritec Corporation’s The Shipyard ought to be paying approximately $136,000. However, a precedent was worked out with The Shipyard for reduced fees

based on green space within the rental units. Rail Realty’s The Hills in upper Port assumed the task of upgrading the playground on Texaco Avenue, which has been in disrepair for many years. This would be its commitment to providing a recreational fee. We still do not know the exact amount of fees to be paid to the village by these corporations. What we do know based on the landscape design provided by Rail Realty for Texaco Park is that the upgrade will be nothing more than adding some shrubs, flowers, benches and a few picnic tables. Is Rail Realty contributing $105,000 worth of upgrades at Texaco Park? Will the village give it the same corporate discount based on its recreational spaces that are for the exclusive use of its renters. What green spaces are located at The Hills? Residents have no access to

these facilities at both The Shipyard and at The Hills. It is important to know if and when corporations pay their fair share in improving our recreational and parkland spaces. Will these fees be severely reduced by credit given for green spaces and gyms provided for the sole use of their tenants? I am hoping our trustees go back to the drawing board and demand that Rail Realty make meaningful substantial changes and upgrades to Texaco Park and that The Shipyard pays a fee sufficient to help maintain our playground, tennis courts and basketball courts, all advertised as amenities available to the tenants of the 114 units at The Shipyard.

The central pillar of our legal system Forget about hot-button legal issues such as judicial activism vs. original intent. A bedrock principle of our nation and system of justice is that an accused must be confronted by his/her accuser. I think this is a cornerstone of the concept of “due process,” a cherished right guaranteed to all in our democratic republic. However difficult this might sometimes be, the burden is upon the accuser — or if a crime has been committed, the prosecution — to prove a charge or crime. We have afforded this right to the most despicable individuals accused of even the most heinous crimes. This is perhaps the central pillar of our legal system: A person is innocent until proven guilty, not guilty — or possibly guilty until proven innocent. Its importance cannot be overstated. Indeed, it is almost a trademark of authoritarian (or fascist or

tyrannical) legal systems that persons accused of crimes (or deed or thought) are required to prove their innocence. Examples that demonstrate the dangers of the “guilty until proven innocent” approach can be seen in the use of show trials by Stalin in 1930s Soviet Union (to complete its transformation into a totalitarian dictatorship) or by some of the excesses of the House Un-American Activities Committee in early Cold War USA: charges — sometimes incomplete — could be made (even by unnamed or unidentified sources), and accused individuals would be required to “prove” their innocence. In the McCarthy era some individuals who could not or would not demonstrate their innocence (sometimes of “crimes” based on the political cause du jour) had their careers and livelihoods terminated. Possibly the most

reprehensible examples of this in U.S. history are found in the 20th-century treatment of African-American men accused or suspected of sex crimes and acts involving white women. “Reprehensible” is hardly a strong enough word. Dozens, perhaps hundreds, of black men were lynched or murdered, often publicly. When we hear statements that begin with “The charge itself” or “Such an accusation alone” should convict anyone of or disqualify anyone from anything, it is time to pause and reflect. In some instances, the burden on the accuser, who is often the victim, to confront the accused can be difficult and even traumatic. We cannot and must not abandon or suspend this basic tenet of our justice system. Period. Michael Zelenak Old Field

A poorly engineered economy Many companies are making huge profits by paying their employees wages that are so inadequate that some of them need public assistance just to get by. Today, thousands of workers rely on food stamps, Medicaid and public assistance because they can’t survive on the wages they receive. Meanwhile, 82 percent

of the world’s wealth created last year went to 1 percent of the population. How silly is that? And who pays for the public assistance subsidizing this flow of wealth? We do. The middle class subsidizes the wealthiest companies in the country, while workers struggle to put food on the table. That’s

what an engineered economy looks like. In my view, it’s ridiculous and needs to end. Pay your workers a living wage or pay the public its money back. It’s really simple: If a worker needs $500 in food stamps, you owe us $500. Jerry Reynolds Coram

Diving with equal opportunity into our first Charlotte block party

fter living in our new house in Charlotte, North Carolina, for a few weeks, we were delighted to receive an invitation to a block party to meet our neighbors. Up to that point, we’d only seen and spoken with one neighbor. She and her family welcomed us to the area, offered an air-conditioning reference and shared the garbage pickup D. None schedule. of the above The morning BY DANIEL DUNAIEF of the upcoming gathering, my wife and I took a walk through the neighborhood. We admired the landscaping and architecture of nearby homes. We moved off the sidewalk as runners passed us. We trotted up one lawn

to clear space for a biker whose steering wheel seemed to be pulling left and right. Most of the people in cars waved as they passed, a regular occurrence here, even when they didn’t know us. My wife believes I alert the canines in the area that I am a “dog person.” A golden retriever and a black Labrador spotted me from across the street and stared, causing their owner to stop and wait as they watched us disappear up the block. A friendly man with a small dog stopped and chatted. He asked if we were residents and if we were attending the block party that evening. When we told him we moved here with our kids, he asked what brought us down. “Work,” we said. “Oh,” he said, turning to me. “Did you get a job with one of the banks?” “No, my wife did,” I replied, directing his attention to her. He was embarrassed and immediately apologized for assuming I had landed a job that required us to relocate. We reassured him it was ﬁne and we kept walking.

I am proud of my wife and her professional accomplishments. I also recognize, even in a world where people regularly discuss equal opportunity, that we are still far from situations in which people can’t assume anything about the roles husbands and wives play when they meet a couple. Later that evening, with our children in tow, we walked the few blocks to the party, waving politely at a man who almost certainly carried a beer the same way 20 years ago when he was in college, although his clothing, like ours, was probably a few sizes smaller. Maybe that’s an unfair assumption, too? When we arrived on a tree-lined cul-de-sac, we noticed that most of the children were considerably younger than our pair, who snarled about an early exit. After urging them to stay, we made some selections in the crowd and broke the social ice. Consistent with our experience since our arrival, we found people who came originally from Long Island, New York and New Jersey. We chatted with a proud father, who pointed

to his high school senior and proclaimed her the best athlete in her entire school. “You must be in public relations,” I said. He and his daughter laughed. “That guy over there,” he said, pointing to a house. “Yes?” I replied. “He is a neurosurgeon who works with football players. His attends games and he does concussion protocol.” “Really?” I asked. “The players are supposed to say ‘spaghetti’ when they see him after a hard hit. They get hit so hard that they say things like ‘ham’ or ‘bologna’ because they can’t remember the ﬁrst concussion word,” he offered. Our children, despite their initial disappointment, found contemporaries that night and are cellphone buddies with the kids on the block. We received restaurant recommendations and local service provider referrals, while we also will recognize a few of the people who exchange pleasant waves on and off the block.

No quarrels with Canada in Quebec and Montreal

uébec City seems like a delightfully European-styled destination that is only a nine-hour drive from here. Montreal, officially Montréal, is even closer, only six hours or so. The old cities there are filled with beautiful stone buildings that speak of some five centuries of North American history, a unique culture that is a French-CanaBetween dian and English you and me mix, lively street BY LEAH S. DUNAIEF scenes and shops, museums, sports and scrumptious restaurant food. I can attest to all that because I attended a press convention that was held in Canada this fall, and a friend and I drove there and back.

By the way, the road trip is a scenic joy as we traveled along the Molly Stark Trail amid the Green Mountains through Vermont and back on the Adirondack Northway. The only way it could have been better is if the leaves had been turning. As it was, the trees were at their lushest, the highways were clear and the weather was perfect — in the 70s with low humidity and azure blue sky. I was thrilled that the local residents could understand my French and even more so that I could understand theirs. I haven’t tried to speak French since I was last in Paris, a while ago. I discovered that the French Canadians speak more slowly than the Parisians generally, so communication of at least a rudimentary nature was mildly possible. I certainly understood how much they dislike President Trump, which they told us often enough after they discovered we were visiting Americans. Quebec City, referred to that way to distinguish it from the larger Province of Quebec, is located both above and below cliffs that line the northern bank of the wide St. Lawrence River.

The Upper Town, home of the now-famous Château Frontenac, was where the elite among the early French settlers lived, including the clergy and government officials. Merchants and craftsmen lived in the Lower Town along the river. The strategic location of the city permitted the French to repel both British and American invaders for more than a century and enabled trade to flourish among New France until Wolfe and de Montcalm fought on the Plains of Abraham in 1759 and the British won. The Quebec Act of 1774 allowed the French to continue to speak French and to practice Catholicism, and by keeping the French satisfied probably kept them from joining the American Revolution. To this day, road signs are in French although children learn English from second grade on and are bilingual. After a couple of days, we made the threehour drive to Montreal and the location of the convention, still enjoying glorious weather. I keep marveling at the weather, knowing that of the original 28 men who accompanied Samuel de Champlain from France in 1608, 20 died from the harsh first winter.

The Island of Montreal was considered, in the early days of settlement in the mid-17th century, to be only an outpost for fur trading. Over the centuries, however, it has become one of the world’s largest primarily French-speaking cities after Paris and the second largest city in Canada — only Toronto is larger. The Port of Montreal is one of the world’s major inland ports, served by the St. Lawrence Seaway. It is a city of skyscrapers, festivals and considerable diversity, and it too has marvelous restaurants, along with the cultural and entertainment offerings one would expect. I only got a short tour of Old Montreal and some time in the art museum, where there was a good exhibit on Picasso and African art, because in Montreal I had to work. I enjoyed the meetings and learned some things there that our newspapers will be telling you about in subsequent issues, also on our website. Our return on Sunday afternoon took us an hour to cross the border compared with fewer than three minutes on the way into Quebec on a weekday. We left our northern neighbor, however, with a strong urge to revisit soon.
