SC: Also enjoyed another trip very much when I spent some time on LI. I stayed in Massapequa. I went to Jones Beach, drove through Hempstead where I have some family roots and drove into the city. I enjoyed the drive on the parkway, driving past the big cemetary just east of the river and visiting Bensonhurst. Another trip was spent strictly "Midtown"...up around 53rd (but I had to drive up 8th from the tunnel and past the Port Authority....the site of Penn Station, right?)
