Long Island, New York

We're camping at Smith Point County Park at the eastern end of the Fire Island National Seashore. No-one told us about this well kept secret! We crossed a small bridge to get here and have a bay to the north of us (100 yards) as well as the open beach to the south (50 yards across a dune). Our site has power hookup and the rates are very affordable. This is also the commemorative site of TWA Flight 800 that exploded in mid-air in 1996 killing all 230 people on board. We did a somber tour of the site today. Tomorrow we are visiting a fellow Sprinter Westy owner and her family in Stamford, Connecticut before making our way to Yonkers and a 3-night homestay with relatives of some Seattle friends where we'll base to do our New York City exploring.
