Month: August 2015

An afternoon in the backyard with your dog. Running by the water. Spending a morning at the beach. Helping the kids set up a lemonade stand. Tasting local wine from the North Fork vineyards. Catching the sunset from the back of a boat.

Whatever makes you happy to live here, we want to see a picture of it!

During Labor Day weekend 2015, we asked readers to tag their Instagrams with #DayinthelifeLI and show us the very best of Long Island living.
