Forward Living: Six tips that kept her house off the market
Believe me, I’m not thinking about leaving the North Fork. For a couple of very good reasons. One is simply that I love the place. The second reason has to do with something I read in The Suffolk Times a short while back. Now I consider this newspaper pretty objective, certainly...

Forward Living: Sweets that get the message across
Let’s see. Flowers would be good. Perhaps a few red roses. Or perfume. Lots of women enjoy sweet fragrance. Maybe even a piece of jewelry. Although that could be expensive. The upcoming Valentine’s Day can certainly prove difficult for guys looking to delight a lady. Even clever, sensitive North Fork men...

Forward Living: The Quiet Car is not for everyone
Yes, winter’s quiet on the North Fork and it may become even more so. As you might have heard, the Long Island Rail Road has initiated a Quiet Car policy on its trains. The pilot program began a few weeks ago on the Far Rockaway branch. Perhaps Riverhead to Greenport...

Forward Living: The North Fork’s sweetest sounds
Right now it’s quiet time all over the North Fork. Windows are tightly closed, locked. Some folks even put up storm windows. No question about it. Chill times are here. Quiet times, too, since those closed windows shut out sounds as well as shivers. Funny, isn’t it? A few months...

Forward Living: Seeking Santa’s helper; must like cold climate
Heading south. Lots of North Forkers think about that this time of year. Perhaps for a holiday visit with grandchildren in Virginia; a tour of lovely, old and temperate Charleston; or, if they’ve got weeks of time, North Forkers might choose to bask on Florida’s beaches. All sounds good in...

Column: Serving up some tasty road names
About this time last year I had an idea. That happens occasionally. Anyway, my idea was this: Lots of roads on the North Fork have winter/Christmas names and I was sure Santa Claus had named those roads. Like Holly Tree Lane, Antler Road and Claus Avenue. Well, it’s Thanksgiving time now...

Forward Living: This ‘trash’ has value beyond measure
For everything there is a season. And on the North Fork, the yard sale season is a long one. From early spring until a few weeks from now, when folks start thinking storm windows, we put our stuff out on lawns, on village greens, in driveways. Then it seems just...

Forward Living: Sources that feed your reading habit
It’s not a happy ending. The last page reveals Borders bookstores nationwide are closing. That, of course, includes the Riverhead store, where, over the years, thousands of North Forkers have browsed and bought. Seems the chain failed to keep pace with electronic technology. I can relate to that. It takes me...

Lombardi Column: For these folks, lunch is in the bag
“You forgot your lunch.” All over the North Fork you’ll hear parents call this after their kids — kids who leave their brown-bag lunches on the kitchen table as they head back to classes this September. Oh, I know. There are some students who beg a few bucks from their folks...

Lombardi Column: This sticker comes with multiple uses
Anything goes on the North Fork. You just have to get the right permit. Building permits, parking permits, get-rid-of-your-garbage permits — we’ve got ’em all. And, so help me, you can get a Seasonal Guest Disposal Permit at Southold Town Hall. Even a Guest Disposal sticker. All you need is...
