Knowing we still had the two mile walk back to Bellport Beach, it was time to head back but not before checking out huge (about 6 feet long) whalebone and Venus rising over the surf.
I also want to thank Patricia Whitlock for not only acting as a tour guide, but also providing a wealth of knowledge during and after the hike.

Patricia also put me in contact with Brookhaven Historian Martin Van Lith, who was kind enough to fill me in on the huge black chain that forms the perimiter of the Brookhaven Memorial Park that I drive by several times each day in Brookhaven:
