Police and a good Samaritan had to step in when a boat overturned in the Long Island Sound on Saturday, leaving two teens floating on the upside-

down craft for more than an hour. The good Samaritan located the 19-year-olds at about 11:30 a.m., when they had already been floating on the boat’s hull for roughly 90 minutes, the Suffolk County Police Department said. The person used a VHF radio to contact the department’s Marine Bureau and provide the boat’s location.

According to police, Smithtown residents Douglas Botto and Eric Damn were wearing life jackets after the 16-foot Hobie Cat catamaran they were sailing overturned on the Long Island Sound, between 2.5 to 3 miles north of the Nissequogue River. The waves in that area were 3 to 5 feet high, preventing the teens from righting the boat.

Police said Marine Bureau officers David Goldstein and Michael Cappiello aboard Marine Delta and officers Keith Walters and Paul Carnival aboard Marine Bravo responded to the scene and rescued the adrift pair, bringing them back to Long Beach in Smithtown and towing in the boat. U.S. Coast Guard personnel were also on the scene, police said.

Supervisor: Events ‘discombobulate’ town By phil corSo

On your mark, get set — no. Smithtown officials are taking another look at the way the town approves festivals, parades and similar events that close major roadways in different parts of the town. Before Tuesday’s special Smithtown Town Board meeting, Supervisor Pat Vecchio (R) and Town Clerk Vincent Puleo discussed complaints both of their offices have received after recent events closed portions of Smithtown, citing negative effects on business and residential life. “It discombobulates people,”

Vecchio said, citing one recent grievance to his office about a town event putting a damper on business. “This is a beautiful town, but this is not the first complaint we have received. I think we need to revisit the process.” St. James resident Scott Flugman prompted the discussion via a letter he penned to Vecchio’s office, citing traffic issues barring his ability to get around town during an outdoor race event in his town on May 31. He said it took him nearly an hour to drive his son home from a friend’s house, who lives roughly eVeNTS continued on page a13

because he anticipated the town would be going out for bonding later this year to fund certain projects. The comptroller said he was not ruling out the possibility that rating agencies might lower the town’s bond rating in the coming year, but if it does happen, it would not be a significant drop. “The rating agencies would like to see a structurally balanced budget,” he said. “As we approach the 2016 budget cycle,

As Long Islanders are warned about an uptick in Lyme disease, another tick-borne virus has emerged in Connecticut across the Long Island Sound. Nearly 12 years ago, Eric Powers, a biologist and wildlife educator, noticed an increase in the tick population at Caleb Smith park in Smithtown, after pulling nearly 40 ticks off a group of his students. Powers conducted a survey of the park and discovered the population of tick predators had decreased, as feral and outdoor house cats either chased them off or killed them. “It’s becoming a huge nationwide issue with our wildlife,” Powers said during a phone interview. “Wherever people are letting their cats out, we’re seeing this disruption in ecosystem where these tick predators are gone.” But what Powers did not find was the prevalence of a tick-borne virus, the Powassan virus, which recently appeared in Bridgeport and Branford in Connecticut. Between 1971 and 2014, 20 cases of POW virus were reported in New York, according to the Cornell Cooperative Extension in Suffolk County. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports the virus has been found in Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Wisconsin. Like Lyme disease, the virus can cause long-term neurological problems if left untreated. But Long Island POW virus incidences remain low despite the increase in tick population, according to Daniel Gilrein, an entomologist at Cornell Cooperative Extension. POW virus, which is related to the West Nile virus, was first identified in Powassan in Ontario, Canada, in 1958 after a young boy was bitten by an infected tick. Little is known about how much the tick population has exactly increased on Long Island, but Tamson Yeh, pest management and turf specialist for the Cornell Cooperative Extension, said it is unlikely cats are contributing to the increase by eating tick predators like birds. “Birds will eat ticks, but not all birds are insect eaters,” Yeh said in a phone interview. She said the snow cover during the winter months served as insulation for the ticks hiding in the ground, which helped them survive during the colder weather. Richard Kuri, president of R.J.K. Gardens, a St. Jamesbased landscaping company, has not noticed an increase in tick population recently. Regardless, he and his men continue to wear long sleeves and use a variety of sprays to ward off bugs while on the job. Kuri also said people may use more natural remedies to deter ticks. “There are people who apply peppermint oil and rosemary mix that will help,” Kuri said. “But none of them are cure-alls.” He added that granular insecticides, like Dylox, help kill a variety of unwanted bugs including ticks carrying viruses like Powassan. There are two strains of the virus, which are carried by woodchuck and deer ticks. Since only about 60 cases of POW virus were reported in the United States in the past 10 years, Yeh said the chance of encountering POW virus is unlikely since the virus is rare. Symptoms of the virus include fever, headaches, vomiting, weakness, confusion, drowsiness, lethargy, partial paralysis, disorientation, loss of coordination, speech impairment, seizures, and memory loss. Other complications in infected hosts may possibly arise, such as encephalitis, inflammation of the brain and meningitis. Powers said he hopes to reduce tick population on Long Island through his quail program. He encourages local teachers, who use chicks or ducklings to educate their students about the circle of life, to raise bobwhite quails. He said releasing these quails annually will not only help them adjust to the presence of cats, but also control the tick population.

He also thanked Ms. Denise Horowitz, the third-grade Fort Salonga Elementary School teacher, for having her students participate in this educational and potentially lifesaving program.

Legislator lauds latest domestic violence victory By Giselle Barkley

Suffolk County Legislator Kara Hahn (D-Setauket) celebrated another milestone victory this week as her most recent efforts to curb domestic violence led to the rehiring of three outreach precinct project caseworkers months after being laid off. The Long Island Against Domestic Violence non-for-profit organization, which provides domestic violence caseworkers in Suffolk County, did not receive a federal grant to fully staff their outreach project in March, and as a result, was forced to lay off four workers. And while LIADV secured private funding, allowing the rehire of one of the four caseworkers in May, Hahn’s recently passed budget amendment will now provide the organization with $79,000 to rehire the remaining three caseworkers this year. Although the organization received the federal grant last year, according to Colleen Merlo, executive director of LIADV, its application the following year was denied. Its advocacy department includes seven precinct advocates, two of whom are also full-time court advocates. Victims in need still had the option of calling the organization’s 24-hour hotline at (631) 6668833 during this time period, however,

in the caseworkers’ absence. Merlo also said the organization reapplied for this same federal grant, since the applications were available under the new funding cycle. The organization will not know if it received the federal grant until October. Meanwhile, the $79,000 will last the non-for-profit organization until December of this year, Merlo said. Hahn, alongside Legislators Kate Browning (WF-Shirley), Monica Martinez (D-Brentwood), Tom Cilmi (RBay Shore) and Sarah Anker (D-Mount Sinai) sponsored this bill amendment, which County Executive Steve Bellone (D) has until July 16 to sign. For Hahn, who said she is a domestic violence survivor herself, this budget amendment will not only help the non-forprofit organization, but also the individuals who benefit from its services. “I want to help victims get themselves out of violent situations,” Hahn said during a phone interview. While she said she doubts that domestic violence will disappear completely, Hahn said she wants to help these victims know their risks and find advocacy in their times of need. This was Hahn’s fourth piece of domestic violence legislation to see validation through the county Legislature. Although she would not disclose what

is next on her domestic violence agenda, Hahn said Suffolk County is “on the cutting edge” of protecting domestic violence victims. She also said the county will continue to support organizations at the frontline of this issue. Merlo said non-for-profit organizations like LIADV need funding from

multiple levels to successfully provide their services. “I’m appreciative of the budget amendment,” Merlo said during a phone interview. “But the truth of the matter is that we need to provide our services and we rely on not just the government but private donors as well.”

North Shore native puts solar shingles in spotlight By alex Petroski

The idea of installing solar panels to a roof as a source of electricity for a home is not exactly prehistoric. Reducing the use of electricity or gas to power and heat homes undoubtedly has a positive effect on the environment. Despite being fairly new to the market, solar panels may be supplanted soon by a less expensive, more effective alternative. Solar shingles have been available in the United States for about five years, according to an estimate by Richard Ciota, a Stony Brook resident who owns District 7 Inc. Ciota’s 21-year-old roofing company is located in Lake Grove. Its residential division is the only one in the Suffolk County, Nassau County and New York City areas permitted to sell Dow Powerhouse solar shingles. Solar panels have been available for decades, Ciota said in an interview at District 7’s main office. They are at this point more efficient in generating electricity than shingles in terms of kilowatts per-square-foot of roof space, though there are problems associated with panels that contribute to the higher cost Ciota said. “When you’re putting a solar panel onto a roof surface, you’re mounting that solar panel to the rafters through the existing roof,” Ciota said about the older technology, which his company offered prior to the availability of shingles. “So the waterproof technology has got to be perfect because you could be putting 40, 50, 60 penetrations

through a perfectly good roof.” Wind, shade from trees, excessive heat and animals are other factors that Ciota said are enemies to solar panels, which are installed on top of asphalt shingles and leave wiring exposed to the elements. Wind can cause the panels to pull the asphalt shingles away from the roof, which is an annoying and costly problem to have to fix after panels are installed. Solar shingles replace asphalt shingles. They are waterproof and work in the same way that any conventional asphalt shingle would along with the added benefit of a reduced electric bill and a more environmentally friendly home than one that runs on electricity or gas heating. Despite availability and the obvious benefits, solar panels only currently exist on about 5 percent of Long Island homes, according to Ciota. The number of homes with solar shingles is exponentially smaller. John Petroski, District 7’s director of solar and residential operations, estimated that the company has done about 70 shingle installations on Long Island since 2012 when Dow partnered with District 7 Inc. Petroski said they have about 35 booked jobs left to complete, as part of Dow’s pilot program, which offered leasing or purchasing options to consumers. “The way [Dow] is moving forward with the technology of the shingles, the improvements they’re making — they’re covering their bases,” Petroski said in reference to the notion that unanticipated issues have aris-

en as solar panels have gotten older, which could also happen to the shingles. “I personally think the solar shingle will take over the marketplace,” Ciota said about the future as the technology continues to be upgraded. “There are new generations of solar shingles that will be coming out that will increase its efficiency and eventually they’ll probably tie up and meet [the efficiency of panels].”

Other companies sell solar shingles on Long Island, though Dow’s are widely considered to be on the cutting edge. In 2012 Dow received a Breakthrough Award from the magazine Popular Mechanics for pioneering an integrated solar roofing system, according to a press release on Dow’s website. Note: John Petroski, director of solar and residential operations, is this writer’s brother.

All-Stars come out at night for Grand Slam Challenge East’s Pat Lagravinese scores game-opening run in 3-1 loss ‘It’s a huge honor, especially to start the game off and just be around all these great players. It was a really cool experience.’ — Nick FaNti

The best high school baseball players that Long Island has to offer were all on the same field Monday night at Farmingdale State College for the Grand Slam Challenge presented by Blue Chip Prospects, where the Nassau County All-Stars beat the Suffolk County AllStars, 3-1. “It’s a great atmosphere,” Joe Flynn of Ward Melville said about the experience after the game. “To come out here with all the best players on the Island, to get to compete against each other one last time before we all head off to college — it was really just a lot of fun seeing some of the talent that’s out there that we didn’t get to see this year.” Billy Bianco of North Shore and Nassau County took home the MVP award, thanks in large part to his two-out, tworun single in the bottom of the sixth inning off of Smithtown East’s Dom Savino. Bianco’s clean single up the middle drove in Chaminade’s Beau O’Connell and Division’s Anthony Papa, and gave Nassau the lead for good. Nick Fanti, Hauppauge’s star lefthander and winner of the Carl Yastrzemski Award given to Suffolk’s best player, got the start on the mound for Suffolk County. He pitched a scoreless first inning, helped out by a smooth 6-4-3 double play started by Smithtown East’s Pat Lagravinese. The double play erased an error by Flynn at third base and got Fanti through the first, unscathed. “It’s awesome,” Fanti said after the game about playing in the Grand Slam Challenge. “It’s a huge honor, especially to start the game off and just be around all these great players. It was a really cool experience.” Fanti was selected by the Philadelphia Phillies in the 31st round of this year’s MLB Draft. He will decide between beginning his professional career in the minor leagues and playing ball at Marist College. Suffolk staked Fanti to a 1-0 lead in the top of the first. Lagravinese roped a one-out single into center field, and then went from first to third on a slow roller to the hot corner by Flynn. The throw, trying to catch Lagravinese taking the extra base, was wild, which allowed him to score the game’s opening run. Nassau tied the game in the bottom of the fifth after a lead-off triple into the gap in right center field by Papa, and a sacrifice fly by Wheatley’s Andrew Hastings, which drove Papa home. Suffolk tried to mount a comeback in the top of the seventh after Nassau pitcher Hasan Deljanin of Clarke walked the bases loaded

with two outs. Deljanin struck out Mike Demarest of East Islip to end the threat, and Suffolk didn’t get another base runner after that. Monday night was the final time that Fanti will throw to his Hauppauge battery-mate P.J. Contreras, who started behind the plate for Suffolk. “I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world,” Contreras said about his fouryear high school career. The fact that the game was an exhibition only slightly softened the defeat for Lagravinese. “Both teams work hard so it’s a tough game to play in, but we showed out and Nassau had their day today and took it over,” he said. Lagravinese and Savino, teammates at Smithtown East, will both play at the University at Albany next fall. “It really hasn’t settled in yet,” Savino said of completing his last high school game. “Even when we lost in the playoffs I never really felt like it was over. Even now, after this, I don’t feel like it’s over.” Flynn, winner of the 2015 Paul Gibson Award, which is given annually to Suffolk’s best pitcher, put his electric stuff on display when he took the hill for Suffolk in the eighth. He pitched himself into and out of trouble, getting MacArthur’s Brian Perez to pop out to first base with two outs and the bases loaded.

10 minutes away. “This is a dangerous and grave inconvenience and should not be allowed to happen again,” the letter said. “We could not pick up our children, we were late to their sports and other activities and we were put at risk for a potentially serious traffic accident. Please have more consideration for the impact on the community when planning these races in the future.” Currently, the town lists a parade, a run or a similar event in the correspondence section of its Town Board meeting agenda. The events are read aloud at two consecutive meetings, and the public can weigh in. But Vecchio said that process only targets residents who actually tune in to each agenda item at any given meeting. “We have two readings. But there is no time in between for anyone to say, ‘Wait a minute,’” Vecchio said. Puleo echoed the supervisor’s sentiments on the limited avenue for residents to become aware of a given event being approved. “If they’re not looking at the meeting, they’re not going to know there is an event,” Puleo said. “My office gets complaints all the time. If you’re the affected person, and that’s not your thing to look at what’s going on in town, you could be blindsided.” In the last six Town Board meetings, there have been first or second readings for 12 separate events labeled as parades, runs, walks or festivals, according to agendas from those respective meetings.

Puleo said it was suggested that his office helps install signs throughout town to alert business owners and residents of upcoming events, but he said it would be difficult to figure out where to put a sign and when. A potential solution, Puleo said, could be to more frequently utilize areas of the town typically closed on the days these events often fall, like Saturdays and Sundays. The clerk recommended to the Town Board that future events be moved to spots like the Hauppauge Industrial Park or the Kings Park Psychiatric Center. But Tony Tanzi, president of the Kings Park Chamber of Commerce, said he disagreed with such a strategy, as various events are planned with the intent to bring more people to Smithtown’s downtown areas. He acknowledged that events in his neck of the woods, like Kings Park Day, might have a negative impact on business temporarily, but the purpose was greater than that day’s cash flow. “I can see the point with some people that sometimes events can be disruptive,” Tanzi said. “As a business owner, it really does have a big impact on sales. But if the goal is to entice people to visit your downtown, I don’t see how [relocating] helps.” As a possible solution, Vecchio said the town might want to consider limiting the kinds of events it approves to allow solely Smithtown-based organizations or town residents as hosts. He argued there would be a lesser impact if the events excluded nonresidents. “The squeaky wheel is getting the grease,” Puleo said. “Whether it’s Smithtown or not, the impact on the residents is still the same.”

OPINION editoriAL

Stop the hate

our nation suffered yet another tragedy last week when an avowed racist allegedly murdered nine people at the famous emanuel African Methodist episcopal Church in South Carolina, and it didn’t take long for the debates to start. Should the Confederate flag still be flown? does institutional racism still exist? Should the suspected shooter, dylann roof, be labeled as a terrorist? The correct answer depends on whom you are speaking to. Most people already have an opinion and are sticking to it, which really doesn’t solve any of the important issues this most recent incident brings to light. Nine innocent people are still dead. According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, the number of hate groups nationwide has increased by 30 percent since 2000. in addition, antigovernment groups rose from 149 in 2008 to 874 in 2014 — numbers that jumped following the financial downturn and the election of President Barack obama. The center also cited an influx of nonwhite immigrants as another factor. “This growth in extremism has been aided by mainstream media figures and politicians who have used their platforms to legitimize false propaganda about immigrants and other minorities and spread the kind of paranoid conspiracy theories on which militia groups thrive,” the center said on its website. We are lucky to live in a country that values freedom of speech and there are countless platforms to voice our opinions today as the internet continues to connect us. But, it also gives individuals a space to spread their message with like-minded people. our nation has a serious case of confirmation bias — the tendency to read, listen and seek out information that we agree with — and it is a big issue. Those who condemn the killings but continue to spew vitriol are fueling a fire. The effects of the South Carolina shooting rippled throughout the country because they could happen in any community, including our own. in fact, one of the victims was a blood relative of a family from Port Jefferson. The chilling notion that hatred and racism still persist in modern American society should not be ignored. our freedoms come with responsibility and those who preach hatred against any group of people are wrong. As a society we need to be kinder, or at least remember the lessons we learned as children. Let’s think before we speak, and if we don’t have anything nice to say, let’s not say it at all.

The state is still grappling with how to handle its mute swan population.

Swans and taxes to the editor: on June 1, i had occasion to see hundreds of thousands dead fish in the Peconic estuary area, along with a dozen mute swans trying to stay in areas without floating dead fish. While fish are dying due to serious environmental mismanagement, it is my understanding that the state department of environmental Conservation is in the process of exterminating the mute swan, a graceful beautiful animal, which

Driving woes to the editor: i would like to share my experience last night at head of the harbor Village Court. i was pulled over and ticketed on May 14 for driving while using a cell phone. The funny part is, i was not on my cell phone and have Sprint phone records to prove it. i wasn’t even touching my phone, although the ticketing officer insisted he saw my phone to my ear. he issued the summons despite my plea that i was not on my phone, and i showed up last night with about 100 other people who were ticketed. The way this court is run is a disgrace. The judge is unprofessional, and you are guilty regardless of how you plea. it was like an episode of “Judge Judy,” complete with condescending remarks and sarcasm from the judge. the number of people who were ticketed for “jaywalking,” was unbelievable to me! really? Jaywalking…in Saint James! i

harms no one. This extermination will take place by oiling swan eggs and mutilating adult swans so they can’t fly out of harm’s way and be killed by foxes and other animals. There are about 2,200 mute swans in New York, with most of them on Long island. it took about 150 years for them to get this level. They appear not to be prolific breeders. it is shocking that our public officials are allowing the deC to waste our tax dollars on this swan holocaust. Can’t we spend

didn’t realize that crossing the street in Saint James was such a hazard. even though i had my phone records to prove that i was not on my phone at the time of the ticket, the AdA basically told me that if i went to trial, it would come down to my word against the officer’s, because it could be said that i was searching the internet or using data, which can not be shown on a cell phone bill. he reduced my ticket to a 3-point violation instead of a 5-point violation and told me if i take a defensive driving course the points would come off of my license. The max fine would be $150. Just for showing up that evening, every single person with a summons paid a $93 surcharge! For what? the judge spent the evening happily fining people all night and sending them on their merry way. i was fined the maximum penalty of $150 plus the $93 surcharge and then, to add insult to injury, they charged me $7 to pay

our tax dollars on serious environmental issues of which there are thousands? i would ask the deC to explain how our environment will be improved by the extermination of the mute swan. Please contact your state assembly member and state senator, to stop the “department of extermination” before it is too late for Long island’s mute swans.

with my credit card. i see the head of the harbor police every day on my way to and from work pulling people over, coincidentally, right out front of where their headquarters are located. i believe that the village is ticketing excessively and making an enormous profit from people who are, for the most part, going about their business, and driving safely. What is a wealthy village like this to do with all that revenue? it is an absolute sham and a disgrace to the town of St. James! i am considering altering my driving route so that the next time i am playing with my hair while driving, i won’t get pulled over by some cop who has nothing better to do then sit in the driveway of police headquarters and stop and use his position of power to ticket whomever he feels. After all…if he saw it…then it happened! elyse Pellicano St. James

The challenging language of report cards

D. None of the above by DaNiel DuNaief

vtimes@tbrnewspapers.com

e don’t start at the top of a mountain, climb on a bicycle and coast to the bottom. That’s not how education works. My daughter recently graduated from middle school. In a room packed with proud parents, school officials shared their observations of this “special” class. One of the officials offered

several stories. “I says,” he began, “that this is a great school.” “I says”? Really? “To fully understand the contribution this class makes to the community,” he continued. I know graduation isn’t about grammar, or is it? If school encourages students to learn, to push themselves and to work hard, it behooves these teachers and those who provide direction to provide a good example. On our son’s previous report cards, teachers have written that he “reads a lot” and has “a lot of energy” and is “a lot of fun.” Hmm. By the time teachers reach the end of a marking period, they have an enormous stack of papers to grade, a need to tally all the times their students were absent, and an administrative burden that takes them away from the front of the room, where they would otherwise have the opportunity to inspire and challenge. These report cards are, per-

haps, not the forum for aspiring writers to share a Dickensian turn of phrase or a Shakespearean allusion. And, yet, they are a way for teachers to spell out how our children are doing and indicate opportunities for growth. My father-in-law has this incredibly amusing routine in which he discusses the modernday little leaguer. “Johnny gets up there, holds the bat all wrong, his knees knock into each other, he’s looking into the stands and he watches three straight-called strikes,” he says. “He puts the bat down and goes back to the bench where the coach congratulates him on a good at-bat,” he continues. “Good at-bat?” my fatherin-law demands, his voice rising in sarcastic surprise. “Seriously? What exactly was good about it? You can convince little Johnny that he’s doing well, but I certainly wouldn’t.” Harsh? Yes, of course. Inappropriate? Possibly. But, here’s the

thing: Kids know when they’re moving forward, when they’re marking time and when they’re mailing it in, regardless of the sales and marketing job parents and teachers sometimes provide as they try to convince them that they’re “truly exceptional.” Several years ago, I accompanied my daughter on a class field trip to the Bronx Zoo. On the way home, I sat next to a teacher I’d never met. She impressed not only with what she knew about the animals at the zoo, educational standards and American history, but with the way she expressed herself and with her ability to listen. When we returned from the bus ride, I told my wife I hoped our daughter would have the privilege of learning in this teacher’s class. Two years later, my hope became a reality. Hearing that this teacher had a reputation for giving considerable amounts of homework, our daughter predicted it would be a “terrible year.” By the

But not the forum for aspiring writers to share a Dickensian turn of phrase. end of the first marking period, our daughter had adapted to the workload, planned every evening and threw herself into her studies. She beamed at her teacher every time she saw her. As I think back on that relatively short bus ride, I can’t help wondering how schools choose and then evaluate their teachers. Educators with the gift to connect, inspire and demand genuine effort from students can and should have the opportunity to help shape America’s future.

A serene ride by sea to NYC

between you and me by leah S. DuNaief

vtimes@tbrnewspapers.com

uriosity won and I arranged to travel into New York City on the new Sea Jitney last Friday afternoon. The ferry, with a capacity of some 150 people, runs between Highlands, N.J., near Sandy Hook, picks up the bulk of its passengers at the 35th Street terminal on the East River, then sails to the Port Jefferson dock, a twohour ride. I took the ride in reverse, using the new water route to get into Manhattan. Here is what I can tell you

about the trip. It is a beautiful and serene cruise down Long Island Sound. I stood at the rail on the upper deck, watching the lush green bluffs of the Island silently slip by, thinking that the view of the land from the water probably hadn’t changed much since the Indians paddled their canoes along the waterway. The day was cool, the air smelled of salt water and the boat barely rocked as it hugged the North Shore and powered along, escorted by an occasional seagull. I could have been anywhere, I suppose, on any river cruise, until we reached Queens and the boat traffic became heavier, with barges, tugs, tankers and fishing boats plying the waters. We began seeing the many bridges that herald the approaching port. Although I was born and grew up in Manhattan, I had never seen this perspective of the borough before. The bridges are the sentinels as the distant skyline, with its high-rise buildings, announces the coming metropolis.

We slid through Hell Gate, the place where waters from the Sound and the East River meet, then started downtown. There were all the east side landmarks, from the East River Drive and the Triborough Bridge — known officially as the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge — on the northern end to the unmistakable outline of the United Nations Plaza, followed shortly by the canopy of the 35th Street dock. Without much ado, the captain neatly nosed the ferry to the pier, and I was walking down the gangplank and into the crowds and energy of Friday evening city life. The docks were filled with people waiting for other ferries, and helicopters were landing and taking off from the adjoining heliport. Red and blue buses were allegedly taking people across town for free, although I didn’t immediately see them in the crowded streets. Municipal green and yellow buses were carrying people uptown and downtown. The abrupt change from the serenity of the water to the cacophony and crowds of the

The ferry is a stress-free way of traveling to and from the city, and I can hardly wait to take it again — just for the pleasure of being on the water in such a beautiful place.
