of course, i saved the best for last. emily2 was most correct when she described cherry grove as a boardwalk village of eclectic houses. eccentricity saturates the air there. one can find ample entertainment just walking around and admiring the unique, quirky decorative styles of sexagenarian queers, as emily2 puts it. there's a quality of otherworldliness on the island, partly reinforced by the near total absence of cars and other accompanying features of 'civilization.' for me personally, the first few hours on fire island involve a steady sloughing off of the expectations of sameness, conformity, and homogeneity.
