Sag Harbor, New York: A slice of Americana

I traveled to last weekend to Sag Harbor for the annual Hamptons Holiday House, and got a little taste of the charming 300 year old seaside town.  The drive was over 2.5 hours from queens one way because of the traffic, but once we arrived we were refreshed by the cool sea breeze.
