Spring Hiking in January

Thought I might share a picture. Jane and I and a handful of friends went hiking in Shelter Island's Mashomack Reserve on what was an unseasonably warm day today. So great to get some fresh air this deep into winter. But even more spectacular is the word "Mashomack." Mash-ooo-mack -- I think I annoyed the heck outta my hiking buddies by repeating it over and over again. Course, that's just one of the many wonderful Native Indian-derived names out here on Long Island. I also really like "Shinnecock," "Hauppauge," and especially "Quogue."
