Irene can't get us down!

Even with the threat of "Irene," we made it down to Fire Island for a few days this week. We had a great time with family and the weather could not have been better, considering. Here's our trip in pictures:

 Deer, everywhere!

 Little brother tries out the boat in the bay..not such a success.

 Dad enjoys the sunset; he loves his Fire Island
