Soundside Beach
Long Island’s north shore overlooks the state of Connecticut, across Long Island Sound. Soundside Beach Park is one of three public beaches we visited that day in the north shore’s town of Bayville.
We walked up a short switchback boardwalk over the dune to the beach. A rabbit darted through the scrub brush on the dune, its white tail a streak of light amongst the reeds and shrubs.
I played the tunes Braes of Lochiel and Brenda Stubbert’s Reel on fiddle, bodhrán, and octave mandolin for the video’s soundtrack.
