We paid a visit to the Quicksilver Pro Surfer Team in Wainscott and had the chance to check out their gnarly Quicksilver tour bus. The theme of the tour is “NOREASTOUR FEEL THE FUTURE” and this bus screamed Hamptons Car of the Day or shall we say Hamptons Bus of the Day. Want to know who lives on the bus?! Stay tuned for the interview to meet the tide-ripping surfers who call this bus home… More »

A case for modernism, though you’d need curtains in the morning.

Wainscott is very tiny, and looks quite like it sounds: classic shingled saltboxes, picket fences galore, riotous flower beds and ivy-garbed arbors. It’s very old New England, only greener, and with a higher ratio of hulking estates. These really bother me, even though, as far as McMansions go, they’re relatively inoffensive -usually pre-weathered, with endless gravel drives and statue-adorned gates.
A hamlet with a one-room school house and a modest white chapel and houses with fat cats on porch swings has no need for ostentation- fabulous and opulent are unwelcome, unasked for newcomers, trailing ferraris and gobbling potato fields. Still, I saw a lot of beauty as I biked down Main St, and had a flat tire not prevailed, I’m sure I would have seen more. Those of you who know it, what do you recommend?

I know this is a chapel, not a house, but it was ridiculously charming. I’m not one (really) to fantasize about my wedding, but this does seem like a perfect spot, don’t you think?
