T E- how do you get from Montauk to Maine? Do you go via Shelter Island, and then take the ferry to New London? |

You know the route. 114. Great off-season. Just fly. Although I jumped a turn on a stop sign in Greenport only to find myself staring at a rather unsympathetic cop. He said, "That is a stop sign, not a slow down sign." I actually started to argue with him when a light went on in my head, and I said, "I apologize, officer." |

I've only taken the New London ferry once, but we spend a lot of time on Shelter Island. I love 114 because it twists and turns endlessly until you get from the south to north ferry. And right at the end of 114 on your left is the Chequit Hotel, we go there often in the warm weather for lunch. |

Yeah, I was LOL when I asked about HOFs, I had the same take on the item as you. I don't expect to find bb stuff at auction in rural New England these days, always a gas when it turns up, even in this form. |

We had two fawns prancing through our yard last spring. They were very cute, other than the fact all the deer are destroying our landscaping. |

I would suggest the team is __________ Foundry Works or something simliar. most of these company teams had their intials on the uniform. I just listed a cabinet on ebay with the company info on the back, the uniforms carried the intials. Some area searches of Foundry companies from the 19th century may prove fruitful. |

Will google away a little later today. What is your seller ID, if you are allowed to say on this board? I'd like to see your auction for ideas, as I will be going the same route with this guy. |

No deer in Brooklyn, they could never negotiate the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway...my wife and I own a home in Sag Harbor, in eastern Long Island. We unfortunately have a deer epidemic out there- they are destroying property, running across busy roads and getting killed, and it's a major topic of discussion. But nobody knows what to do about it. |

I grew up in Maine. Just curious as to where in Maine you considered to be "rural"? By the way, nice piece. |

About three years ago I almost hit a deer in Sag Harbor. It was mid November and dusky and I missed it by about an inch-it was just bounding across the road. One of my scariest driving moments ever.....it would have destroyed our van if I had hit it. |

My 22 year old son totaled his car on a deer this fall. he hit the deer at 55 or so. Blew out all his windows on the drivers side, ripped off the rear view mirror and through it through the rear window. The deer was slit wide open from the neck to the hip. Dead before it hit the road. He normally drives with his arm out the window, but he luckily wasn't or he might be the next Pete Gray. Our yard is completely covered with deer tracks. My puppy loves to sniff them. I believe deer are not going extinct any time soon. They are everywhere. At night it gets very dangerous around here while driving. |

Dave- when I'm at the house and I get up early to drive for the newspaper, I usually see dead deer on the side of the road. I've never hit one but once the car in front of us did- the deer flipped in the air but was only injured and managed to run away. Sag Harbor is one of the worst areas. When I get up in the morning there are typically 6-8 deer on our property eating up the shrubbery that cost us a fortune to plant. Very disturbing, and we may have to surround ourselves with a deer fence. |

It is impossible to live on east end of LI and not at some point hit a deer. My hits have been, as far as I know, non-fatal for all parties involved. You have to be really aware of them off season and be ready to brake. You watch for deer more than you watch oncoming traffic. |

Thanks Barry for your kind thoughts. He's a great son. You'd like him. He's 22 has landed a great job with Medtronics. he's got his head on straight. It was scarey. he had a ton of glass in his hair and ears. For the life of me, I can't figure out how he didn't get any in his eyes.. |

One way to solve a deer problem is to circulate good recipes. |
