North Fork Vacation Day 3 - A Walk in the Woods

Wednesday the 23rd dawned prettier than the day before - but the forecast was for even higher winds. There are some nice sheltered places where we could've gone for a paddle, but after the day before, neither of us was really set on paddling in the wind again. Therese, one of the lovely desk clerks at the the Sunset Motel, had set us up with a list of hiking/walking in the area. The North Fork is a combination of residential and agricultural, and there isn't much in the way of longer hikes, but it seems like every town has something of a preserve to offer. Laurel Lake Preserve had one of the longer trail options with a 2.6 mile loop trail, and also sounded very scenic, so we went with that one, and enjoyed it very much. We started the day with breakfast at the Cutchogue Diner, a local classic that dates back to 1941, and then we hit the trail.

Lovely spot. All photos after this - click on the first one for a slideshow view!
