Nice hub.
Joaniemb A warm welcome to Hubpages and you are on to a great start. It was a pleasure to read and feel connected to the beautiful place you suggested. Vacation is what I really need and darn this place is too tempting to resist. Wish I could go there this summer. Cheers and happy hubbing.
Hi Joaniemb- The Hamptons sound like a wonderful place to visit. It seems to have elegance, and I was wondering how affordable it might be. I used to live in Buffalo, and as far as I got was NYC. You describe the area very well. I see that we are newbies.
Thanks for your comment brake12. The Hampton's is affordable for a vacation and yes it is a great place I love it here.
From NYC it is about a 2 hour ride and your in the country. I look forward to following your hubs. Good luck to the both of us.
I lived in NY for years and never went to the Hampton's. I guess because I thought it was for the rich folks. I have heard it is beautiful!
Great information, thank you.
