Autumn In Mastic Beach

Summer sands slip through our fingers the leaves turn from green to shades of orange, yellow and red.  Instead of hanging out at the Beach Hut at Smith's Point, we are hiking at our local trails.

The Wertheim, St. Georges Manor and William Floyd Estate are beautiful places to hike during the fall season.  Listen to the birds as you observe the fantastic fall foliage and watch the deer run by. 

We took a hike last week at the Wertheim but I forgot to bring my camera.  I can't wait to go back and get those fabulous shots of the fall foliage reflected on the Carman's River.

Mastic Beach is much more than summer fun - it's a breathtaking place to be in the fall. 

By the way, are you getting ready for Halloween?  I just put up all my harvest decorations and bought pounds of candy in preparation for the trick-or-treating ghosts and goblins.
