The ground floor of this home, was originally the summer cottage my parents owned, on Noyac Bay, on the North shore of the South fork of Eastern Long Island, N.Y. I spent a lot of Springs,there getting it ready for the Summer rental season, and Falls, cleaning it up, and closing it down for the Winter.
As I understand it, the original cottage was torn down and rebuilt,exactly, {{ long story..the second floor was designed before the need for a completely new foundation was discovered . the cottage "grew" a room at a time, each time with a different style foundation under each new section. }} with a single foundation.
Once the ground floor was rebuilt the construction continued with the addition of the second story. There used to be almost 70 feet of beach in front of the cottage, at high tide. The color change on the pilings shows the high tide line.( May 2013)
The bay water was bitter cold, but it was a warm and sunny day. The Atlantic ocean water on the South shore, 9.5 miles away was even colder !!
We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
