Tour Our Long Island by Susan Marie Davniero


September 2014

Along the Long Island cove
It’s a treasure trove
Find a tapestry of sites
Visiting days or nights

Robert Moses’ master plan
Map of Long Island land
Long Island plays host
To beaches on its coast

All that nature creates
Gardens, parks, lakes
Lush Long Island hues
Greens, browns, blues

Lighthouse at Montauk points the way
To where the Ducks team play
Party on at Jones Beach Park
Stay for fireworks after dark

All together can be found
Along the Long Island Sound
Tour Long Island and roam
The place I call home

 Welcome to Adventureland



Since 1962  Adventureland found 
Along the Long Island sound 
Look there everywhere around 
Rides and games merry-go-round 

It's a playground of family rides
When bumper cars drive and collide  
Flow of colorful balloon float on by 
Hurricane Coaster soars into the sky 

Open all summer is planned
Weekends winter seasonal span 
Restaurant and arcade stand
All year at Adventureland

Nominated White Castle Story
Cravers - Hall of Fame
We are loyal customers of White Castle. We got way back to Hollis Queens, NY in the 1960's where my husband and I grew up. We both went to the White Castle on Francis Lewis Blvd. but didn't know each other back than.





Now we go together to White Castle after being married 30 years - life is a full circle after all.

HOME OF LONG ISLAND’S INDEPENDENCE
Published Great South Bay
1776 Battle of Independence
A time of history penance
Stage on Long Island land
Under Washington’s command
Defiant battle’s cries wrath
Trail the forsaken patriot’s path
Waging at Long Island coast
Independence was once lost
British troops sought to overtake
Thrashing Long Island’s landscape
British victory of one battle score
Yet, America ultimately wins the war
Liberty and freedom triumphed ever since
Home of Long Island’s Independence

Look Ma No TV 
By Susan Marie Davniero
Published Great South Bay, Long Story Short
Look Ma no TV - I turned off the TV. Yet, the choice was not mine. By chance during our home renovations my husband and I moved out temporarily while the home repair (new kitchen/bath) work is being done. We didn't take the cable TV box with us deciding against it due to the expense of disconnecting and installing elsewhere could result in loss of our special plan. Without cable hookup no TV would work, so we're living without a TV.
Living without a TV is the new normal for us. We will be back home soon enough but during this time our life has change channels so to speak. It seems radio days are here again...as my husband, Bob and I turn on the radio; FAM Sports, WHLI AM, 1010 News and Family Radio. Reading has become a page turner in this chapter of our lives reading the newspapers,  books, magazines, jumble and crossword puzzles. And conversation has turned up its volume as my husband and I talk more.
I admit I can't join in with the office water cooler TV shows talk at work...but like a TV commercial, it was just chatter and a waste of time.  But shutting off the TV has it awards.  It seems shutting off the TV has become a blessing in disguise. The TV blocked my energy to be free to live life to the fullest. Without spacing out wasting time in front of TV I have found space in my day to get everything done. After years of Mom telling me to shut off the TV and do something worthwhile - I am. Mother was right after all.
For me, TV watching is like chocolate cake...it's something that I once enjoyed but was bad for me, that I don't do anymore. And I'm healthier and better shape since turning off the TV. And my husband and I only are getting closer.
Living without TV reminds me this is not our home. It's not forever and the real Gallup Poll can only be taken after we back home hooked up with cable, if I will resume the old TV habit. But I have learned that living without TV isn't so bad after all - I can survive! 
Without the accompaniment of the TV, I have found company with family, friends, hobbies, church and everything is getting done on my "to do list that." It's a new world. L
Life is not a spectator sport - I learned to live life not watch it. Essentially, turning off the TV has turn into a better healthier life style for me.
