I don't know, Russ. Suffolk County has Greenport, Shelter Island, Sag harbor (I think), heck I might boat out there this weekend. I had a boat sink out from under me at Plum Gut once (landed on Plum Island - there's a story for you).

North Reading area has - well, Jon, really.

I'd go into it more, but I've already derailed this thread.

I concur.  Thread is derailed.

I spent yesterday in Montauk on a friend's boat and had dinner in Greenport Friday night..  Suffolk is nice yes, but I lived in Sterling and worked in North Reading.  Sterling was a great town and New England was close enough to home to allow us to enjoy our family like without spending every weekend at a family birthday.  Still easy to get home for the holidays.

Last question Tom.  Do you know Wayne Overton of Gilway?  He and I are good friends.  He just moved to a water front property in Southold.

Since you guys derailed it I must say I am convinced now that Tom M knows where Jimmy Hoffs is buried.

Not personally, no, but if he has waterfront in Southold, I sure would like to.

Andy,
I have thought, and am still thinking about your question, and I'm having a tough time justifying the move when I have the best fabricator I know making all my granite, and two of the estone brands we sell. He can do a better job than I can, so I let him do it.

Reuben brings the Freudian funny with the Hoff/Hoffa bit. Don't think I didn't catch that.

And I'll never tell.

Tom,

As the thread takes another twist...

I could arrange an introduction to Gilway.  We could make that alot easier if you told me that you have a need for semi-custom solid surface vanities in a box.  Wayne has the best program I've seen and I belive he services several other fabricators.  4 edge proviles, in between sizes, sink center by spec and a box suitable for common carrier.  Of course, you'd want to see the shop before doing business.  Why drive around when you can dock in his yard - space permitting?

 In the not too distant past he serviced several hundred Home Depots with the Smart Tops vanity program.  He does the same thing with Corian now, but not for Depot.

Now you're telling me he has a waterfront fabrication shop?
I'm green GREEN, I tell you.
With envy. Not the enviro kind.

Ahhh, I see.
Not as fortunate as I thought. Still, nice arrangement, that's for sure.
