Suffolk and NYC Residents Finding Escapes Close to Home BY DANIEL DUNAIEF DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

Residents of both Suffolk County and New York City have turned to local hotels and bed and breakfasts to enjoy time away from home amid limited travel options during the pandemic. With out-of-state guests from numerous states limited in their travel to the area, corporate travel down considerably, and sports teams either shut down or playing without any fans, area hotels have still attracted guests from nearby towns and villages and from city residents disappointed with ongoing urban closures and eager to enjoy a natural setting. “It’s very different now,” said Jamie Ladone, sales executive at the Holiday Inn Express Stony Brook. “We’re not getting as many outof-state guests,” but the hotel is finding people who are eager for a staycation. Indeed, Emilie Zaniello and her family recently spent a weekend at the Holiday Inn, just 20 minutes from her home in Centereach “We needed to get out of our element, to take a break from everyday life and the stresses right now,” said Zaniello, who stayed during a weekend with her husband John and their two children, 8-year-old Abigail, and 6-year-old John Robert. The family felt “cooped up in the house” as their children didn’t have as much of an opportunity to do “normal, everyday things,” Zaniello said. Abigail and John Robert enjoyed playing on the baseball field and the basketball court, while the family also booked time to go swimming. “It just felt like a mini-vacation, where we didn’t have to go too far,” said Zaniello, who

drove back and forth to her home to take care of the family’s two miniature dachshunds. At the Holiday Inn, Suffolk residents have also enjoyed the indoor pool, outdoor patio, and volleyball and basketball courts, which families can use while maintaining social distancing, Ladone said. The hotel also has a putting green, horseshoes, and a baseball field and basketball court. “We have people looking to spend quality time together like a family outdoors,” Ladone said. The Holiday Inn has a meeting space upstairs with a seating capacity, under nonpandemic conditions, of 100. The hotel is hosting baby showers and corporate events outdoors on their patio. The Holiday Inn has booked about 30 percent more outdoor parties than usual, Ladone said. The Stony Brook hotel has also partnered with Spa Exotique, which offers massages or facials, and kayak packages with Stony Brook Harbor Kayak and Paddleboard.

Bed and Breakfast

Bed and breakfasts in the area are also attracting attention from residents of Suffolk County and New York City. At the Fox and Owl Inn in Port Jefferson, people are booking their rooms one to three weeks before they need them, reflecting the uncertainty about plans that might need to change amid fluid infection rates. For the past two months, the Fox and Owl has been booking about 90 to 95 percent of their capacity, with a majority of the guests coming from New York City and Long Island rather than the usual far-flung locations across the country and world. The bed and breakfast derived its name from

Soul Chic Boutique Opens in East Setauket

A new woman-owned boutique with heart launches during COVID BY COURTNEY REHFELDT DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA Opening a boutique can be a tricky endeavor under normal circumstances, but launching during a pandemic is undoubtedly not for the faint of heart. Luckily, Kristen Hoffman was up for a challenge. As the new owner of Soul Chic in East Setauket and a resident of Port Jefferson, she was able to fulfill her childhood dream. A writing professor at SUNY Old Westbury and mother of two teenagers, Hoffman was just about to sign a lease for her boutique when COVID-19 shut down the world. A fast thinker, she quickly decided to launch an online shop to build a following until she could find the next perfect brick-and-mortar location. Located at 262 Main St. in East Setauket, near Country Corner Tavern, Hoffman opened her doors June 24, only two weeks after Phase 2. She found that she created key customer relationships by prelaunching online, so women were more than ready to shop when she finally opened. “People who did pop in were nervous about whether they could touch the clothing, but all were so relieved to be out of the house,” she said. “Word has spread, and we’ve already had to build another fitting room and add display

space to the store. It’s growing quickly, and we feel really blessed.” It was important to Hoffman that her boutique represents women of all shapes and sizes. She made sure that Soul Chic cultivates a welcoming, uplifting boutique environment for its shoppers. “Everywhere in my store and on my site, I have words of affirmation, words to uplift women, especially in the fitting rooms,” she said. “Women are so hard on themselves — we’re our own worst critics. It’s sad to watch, and it hurts my heart because I don’t see all that when I look at other women. I appreciate their inner beauty and the energy they bring. I admire their strength and courage, and marvel at the different stories each has to tell. So, I have sayings like ‘You look SOUL beautiful’ around the store, and I want to spread that message. I want women to come here and feel beautiful and valued and heard.” Hoffman is also an advocate for women, with a focus on Long Island-based creators. “I want to support other women in businesses, especially artists and makers, by continuing to bring in product lines from as many local women as I can,” she said. “I want to share the success with as many women as possible.”

A Bit of Family History and Folklore BY BEVERLY C. TYLER DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Stories, anecdotes and tales are the remembrances that add shape and substance to family history. Recording or writing down these bits of folklife can be an enjoyable experience for family members. It is also an excellent way to keep alive the memory of generations past and preserve the interesting details of the lives of ordinary people, who lived in a different time with a different way of life. I can remember years ago my father told me a story about his father that had been passed down to him by his cousin. My grandfather died when my father was 12, hence the lack of a more personal remembrance. My grandfather, Beverly Swift Tyler, had been captain of coastal sailing vessels all his working life. After he retired from the sea, he continued to enjoy sailing and being on the water. He built a 31-foot gaff-rigged catboat, named the Madeline, behind the Lake House which he owned and ran as a hotel and summer boarding house, now the Setauket Neighborhood House. The boat was constructed under the critical eye of neighbors and friends, who had no hesitation about making suggestions to improve the work as it progressed. When completed, the Madeline was considered a fast boat and won a number of sailing races against other boats in the area. One individual, who Grandfather beat quite often, was constantly after him to sell the Madeline. Finally, Grandfather agreed, and he sold the catboat to the man. The next year Grandfather began work on a new catboat which he completed in 1906 and named the Setauket. While he was building the new boat, the same kibitzers came around to make suggestions. He, very curtly, referred them to the Madeline as being their community boat and that he was building the Setauket by himself. The Setauket, as related by cousin Roger Tyler, “was oak ribbed with pine planking. The original mast was sixty feet, made of strips of wood bound together making the mast

hollow in the center. The mast was (eventually) shortened to forty-five feet. The canvas was very heavy and was cleaned by lying (it) out on the beach and scrubbing with water, scrub brushes and sand.” The Setauket was raced in Port Jefferson and won consistently against all competition (including the Madeline). It got to be so that they would not tell Bev when a race was to be run and a few times he found out about them only just an hour or so before the race but raced and won anyway. “The Setauket required two to handle it,” Tyler noted. “The canvas was extremely heavy and difficult to raise and control.” The Setauket was also used by my grandfather to take summer guests staying at the Lake House on excursions around Port Jefferson Harbor and into Long Island Sound. Grandfather installed a two-cylinder engine in the Setauket, probably after 1913. Then, when the mast was removed a sun cover was added. This arrangement was more comfortable for and still gave guests an enjoyable afternoon on the water. Grandfather married my grandmother, his third wife, in 1912 at the age of 57. Together they continued to run the Lake House as a hotel and summer resort until 1917, when it was purchased by Eversley Childs and donated to the community. The Setauket was sold, about 1825, and used to carry coal for a coal company in New Jersey. It was brought back a few years later by Theron and Leon Tyler, cleaned of coal dust and eventually used again as a sailing craft. It finally sunk a number of years later off Horton Point, which is north of Southold on Long Island’s North Fork. My grandfather died Oct. 12, 1926, and is buried in the graveyard of the Caroline Church of Brookhaven in Setauket. Beverly C. Tyler is a Three Village Historical Society historian and author of books available from the society at 93 North Country Road, Setauket. For more information, call 631-7513730 or visit www.tvhs.org.

Oh Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth, I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to succor me in this necessity There are none who can withstand your power. Oh show me herein you are my mother. Oh Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee. (3 times). Oh Holy Mary, I place this cause in your hands. (3 times). Holy Spirit, you who solve all problems, light all roads so that I can obtain my goals. You gave me the divine gift to forgive and forget all evil against me, and that in all instances of my life, you are with me. I want in this short prayer to thank you for all things as you confirm once again that I never want to be separated from you in eternal glory. Thank you for your mercy toward me and mine. The person must say this prayer 3 consecutive days. The request will be granted. This prayer must be published after the favor has been granted. J.O.

Editorial Letters to the Editor Dear North Shore Students UUF Stands in Unity with Black Lives Matter In June, the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship at Stony Brook hung a Black Lives Matter banner at its property on Nicolls Road in East Setauket to express outrage at the killing of George Floyd, and solidarity with people of color who continue to be oppressed by systemic racism in America. As a result of the banner, several people contacted the fellowship to express their gratitude that our religious organization was taking a stand to say that “Black lives matter.” The banner was intact until sometime over last weekend, when the cables securing it were cut, the support pole bent and the flag stolen. Coincidentally, on Monday night, our minister’s home and car were egged. The board of trustees of the fellowship officially expresses our continuing support for Black Lives Matter. The banner has

We’re not going to lie to you. We know this school year is going to be a tough one. If the end of the 2019-20 academic year has taught us anything, it’s that getting an education during a pandemic is difficult. Watching parents rally across the North Shore has also shown that not all parents agree with their districts’ plans for the new school year. Some want more in-person learning, while others want options for keeping you home instead. While it’s imperative for parents and school administrators to work together to provide the best education for their children, for students the most important thing on your minds should be getting that education while staying healthy. We know some parents feel that their children may have fallen behind during the few months schools went fully remote earlier in the year. All of a sudden switching to remote learning left many districts scurrying to figure out how to best utilize this type of e-learning. While some said they excelled at it, others very much did not. No matter how you’re returning to school, it’s important for you to raise your hand if something doesn’t make sense whether it’s regarding a lesson or even how to follow public health guidelines. It can be hard sometimes for a student to admit they don’t know something, but now more than ever it’s important to take control of your studies and your health. Every child has dreams for the future, and it’s the school’s responsibility to help them obtain those goals. So, to students, we say, “Speak up!” Let your parents know how you’re feeling about how things are going, or touch base with a teacher or guidance counselor. For those who are attending in-person classes, we know you’ll have to handle new precautionary measures such as social distancing, wearing masks when it’s not possible to stand 6 feet away and having temperatures taken upon leaving the house or entering the school. We know a lot of responsibility has been put on your shoulders. What do you do if you see someone not complying? Speak up. It’s hard, we know. Bullying is a bigger problem than ever so you may not want to call attention to yourself. But with some New York colleges open for only a week or two, we are already seeing some temporary closings, including SUNY Oneonta which at the beginning of the week reported 177 COVID-19 positive cases since the start of the fall semester with 44 students quarantining and 65 in isolation on campus. The guidelines are to help keep you and your loved ones as healthy and safe as possible. It’s imperative to realize that someone can be infectious, even if symptoms aren’t being shown. We know this is a lot of responsibility to put on young shoulders. But as journalists that have been fortunate enough to interview many of the students in our coverage areas, we know the depth and breadth of the intelligence and empathy of our youth. To those who will study for hours despite not having immediate access to teachers, and to the student-athletes who continue to practice alone on the field or on the lawn with their parents, we see you. We know you got this. Our editorial staff also wants to let our young people know that we’re here for you. If you see a persisting problem going on at your school, email us at news@tbrnewsmedia.com, and we’ll look into it. You can even share with us your feelings about navigating these new waters in a letter to the editor to be published right in this very newspaper. It’s going to be hard, but we’ll get through this together.

already been replaced. We are honored to be a part of this movement and believe there is growing support for Black Lives Matter in our community. The vandals who are opposed to that message of equality are on the wrong side of history

and the wrong side of justice. Sara Lutterbie, board president Barbara Coley, co-chair of Social Justice Committee Unitarian Universalist Fellowship at Stony Brook

An Open Letter to Congressman Zeldin You keep using the adjectives like “dark, negative, extreme, dangerous, radical” when describing Democrats and Liberals. That is astonishing to me since your base — and your Republican mentor President Donald Trump’s base — have followings that include the Ku Klux Klan, neo-Nazis, extreme and radical religious leaders, racists, anti-Semites, a 17-year-old murderer of protesters and gun-toting suburbanites. I would like to inform you of what has been happening to me, my family and my community. On Father’s Day, a small gathering of six families, including children, held a peace and equality vigil on a corner a block from my house. A truck pulled up, and the driver starting screaming and threatening us. His verbiage included the N-word, the C-word, the B-word, rape and telling us to get out of his community (FYI, he doesn’t own a home in our community). Then he left us with these words, “I am going home to get my gun and f-ing kill you all.” Again, there were five children with us. Now two other families and I have an order of protection against him. He also quoted Trump from his Tulsa, Oklahoma, gathering from the night before [on June 20], which you [Zeldin] were in attendance. A week after that incident, as

we stood on the corner again, this person drove his truck toward us causing us to quickly disperse. Police were called and while the police were helping us, a man walked up and assumed the police were called against us. The man walking asked the police if he could, “Stand his ground (i.e., shoot us) if we came onto his property.” This man lives in my community. Two weeks later, Lee, another stellar citizen who is a fan of your mindset, came onto my property and tore down signs. Not once, but twice. When my husband and I confronted him as he was reading a sign I put up addressing the person who was trespassing, he stated, “BLM is a terrorist organization and he is proud of his white skin.” I guess he felt his white skin allows him to destroy personal property and trespass. The policeman, who happened to be patrolling because of the other racist, intervened. Your racist fan was told to stay away and never have contact with us. Now, we have one of these lunatics or possibly another racist dumping garbage on our property. Lee, because of the hate, venom and lies you continue to spew to the public, these racist and hateful men feel entitled to behave in such a deplorable manner. I have lived in my community for 20 years. This is the first time I have security

cameras and a genuine fear each time a car, especially a pickup truck, slows down in front of my house. My stomach turns each and every time I see a Trump banner and a sign that endorses you. (By the way, is it Zeldin or “Zelden”? A lot of your peeps spell it Zelden.) I would never destroy other people’s property, and I couldn’t imagine, even on my worst day, threatening to go home and get a get a gun to kill them and their children. This is not fake news. These events actually happened and if you choose to investigate, I will supply you with the case numbers. These are your people, Lee. They are dark. They are negative. They are extreme. They are radical and they are most certainly dangerous. I remember when you started your hateful and vicious political journey at the Setauket Neighborhood House when the police had to be called to rein in your constituents. Your vile conduct has unleashed the worst in people. I believe the people of Congressional District 1 have had enough and will choose justice, peace and equity for all this November, and we will vote you out. Then mercifully, we will no longer be subjected to your dark and dangerous ways. Susan Blake East Setauket

Opinion

Thoughts on the Eve of a Radically Altered College Drop Off

A

heaviness hovers in the air as we prepare to pack our daughter’s stuff into the car and drive her back to college, an environment fraught with new rules and anxiety. We realize this experiment in campus life, such as it is, might end in days or even a few weeks, as her school may pull the same rip chord it used in March. While she is returning to campus, all but one of her classes is remote. The in-person class D. None meets twice a week, of the above so she is going BY DANIEL DUNAIEF back to a restricted college life for two hours a week of in-person learning. Last year, with its jumble of emotions from taking her to college for the first time,

seems so wonderfully innocent and low stress by comparison. By taking her to college this week, she is already arriving on campus three weeks after classes began and is scheduled to return home before Thanksgiving. That means she’ll be on campus, at most, for two and a half months. That is two weeks longer than summer camp. We want her to learn, have fun, meet new people and take advantage of college opportunities. Taking these goals one at a time, I’m not convinced that remote classes in which professors record lectures students can watch at their leisure provides the ideal academic experience. How can they ask questions? How can they turn to the person sitting next to them, or, in the modern world, six seats away, and ask to repeat what they didn’t hear or to see if the professor might have misspoken? College learning occurs on and off campus. In an ideal world, students not only learn from their professors and teaching assistants, but also from each other. They form study groups where

they share notes and test each other. They could share their screens and form virtual study groups. In these small groups, however, they can and do send private chats to other people and feel freer to respond to the beep or flash of light on another electronic device, distracting them from the group exercise. The personal connection through the computer is also limited, as people can’t slap each other on the back or chase each other around a library during a much-needed break. We also want her to have fun, which isn’t the top priority for schools desperate to stay alive financially while keeping the campus community healthy. Even with the most active measures to protect everyone, the virus finds ways to evade detection and to spread. The virus has become the boogeyman of our childhood nightmares, but instead of lurking under the bed or in dark corners of the closet, it waits on door knobs, in airborne particles and on banisters. To protect everyone, the school isn’t allowing students to visit other dorms. They are limited in

social gatherings outside, where they have to be six feet apart and also need to wear masks. In a recent email, my daughter’s school told her, “If you see something, say something.” Those words, which became the cultural norm after 9/11, suggest that careless students are the equivalent of viral terrorists. Perhaps a better approach would be to encourage students to model safe behavior and to protect themselves and others on campus. To facilitate safer social interactions, schools might consider putting up tents, in which they place small circles on the floor that are six feet apart. Students could visit each other in these settings, where they can talk and laugh and see each other in person and wear that great blouse or cool shirt that doesn’t look as good on zoom. Ultimately, the opportunities they have will depend on the ability of the school, working with students, to figure out what they can do and not what they can’t or shouldn’t. We hope the challenges and adversity of the current reality somehow bring our daughter figuratively closer to her new friends, at a safe social distance.

Autumn Is Here and to Be Enjoyed

A

n old friend visited, one who had lived here many years, and we used the occasion to have a mini reunion of sorts. The half dozen or so of us wives and mothers, who had come to Long Island in our 20s and raised our children here as our husbands built their careers, are now widows together. We gathered at the beach, then again over breakfast, then on to another beach over two days to catch Between each other up on our lives and you and me the progress of BY LEAH S. DUNAIEF our children and grandchildren. It was a moveable feast of personal histories and philosophies. The good news is that our children and grandchildren seem to be doing pretty well.

Some of the children went into the same careers as their fathers or mothers, others went in different directions. Almost all moved off the Island, although they return for regular visits or Zoom during this unprecedented time. Watching the grandchildren grow and develop their own lives and ideas with little responsibility needed from us is a delight. Of course, we talked about our various health issues and traded advice, but not too much since there were more interesting subjects. One theme that came up was our appreciation for what life has given us. We all treasure our families and the love among the members. We also deeply rejoice in our friendships, especially those of a lifetime. Old friends cannot be replaced. They remember our parents, they laugh with us over what seemed in the past like serious problems and they bear witness to our lives. They know us for who we are, and best of all, they don’t see us as aged, but rather essentially as we looked when we first met. Over the years, we swam together at the apartments’ pool, we cooked for each other with late dinners — “gourmet groups,” we

called them — after the kids were put to bed in our new homes. We skied together in Vermont, played tennis at the school courts and then in the tennis clubs, we sailed together on the Sound, we cheered as our offspring moved through elementary, junior and senior high schools, we applauded as they went off to colleges of their choice, and we began to dine out regularly with each other. We comforted each other as, one by one, we began to lose our parents. We were becoming the older generation. Most fun of all, we began to travel with each other. Places we visited, in no particular order and with various combinations of friends, included Canada, Alaska, France, Switzerland, Holland, Belgium, Monaco, England, Wales, Ireland, Scotland, Spain, Portugal, Morocco, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Montenegro, Estonia, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Russia, China, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, Singapore, Bali, Hong Kong, New Zealand, Australia, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Grand Cayman, St. Thomas, Costa Rica, Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Italy, Italy, Italy.

For each and every one of those destinations, we have indelible memories, and always of some combination of us together. And we have the endless number of photographs to remind us of the details. What are we left with now? We are enormously grateful for our lives, our health, our children and grandchildren, our memories and our future, we hope, to some degree together. We are more mellow now and able to distinguish the minor irritations from the major challenges. We think of ourselves as in the autumn of our lives, grateful for all we can do and aspire to do. And interestingly, none of us has moved to live with any of our children, although some of us have moved to smaller quarters or warmer locations. If we could just get past this pandemic and go back to kicking up our heels, we would look forward to that. The underlying theme from our gatherings is our profound gratitude and appreciation for life. One friend said she notices birds more, listens to their songs, admires their colors, enjoys nature in a deeper way now. I think she spoke for us all.
