One of our favorite activities from last weekend was driving east through the village of Montauk and exploring Montauk Point. Even on a cold, windy day, we loved the charm of the town and views at the point...

Windmilll in East Hampton
We had a fabulous weekend escape to East Hampton! It was my first time visiting the area during the off-season (and I haven't been to the Hamptons in many years.) But we're now official fans...
