Miss Kitty, the Springs General Store’s mascot, has passed away after 23 years of bird watching. Kristi adopted the cat 10 years ago after the sudden death of its owner when Kitty was 17. Twenty-three years is a long time for a cat to live, and I am sure she had a full and interesting life. - Trapeze brings thrills and empowerment (The Southampton Press & The East Hampton Press)

Summer’s in full swing. The Southampton Kiwanis Club carnival next to Carvel, which always catches me by surprise, has come and gone, the crabgrass is taking hold of my lawn and the traffic has gotten decidedly worse. This is the time of year when I try to keep a low profile.
