The Second 2016 Kleiner Tour of the Long Island Motor Parkway


On November 27, 2016, Art Kleiner, of Kleiner's Korner fame, led his second tour of the Motor Parkway with his friends. This time the tour focused on western Nassau County and eastern Suffolk County. A great time was had by all!

Enjoy,

Howard Kroplick

Looks like it was an interesting day. Sorry that due to a family emergency I was unable to be there but I’m hoping to do it the next time. Thanks for the invite Art. You have my cell number!

Great job guys. Keep it up. That pic of the maxess road bridge shows there has been more damage to it. The concrete was smooth up beyond the date stamp last year. But recently it seems to have chipped down. Not good.

I love how you guys meet in the office before the journey! Keep exploring!

No problem Mike.  Hope all is well.

Just a reminder that that historical marker is (or at least was) incorrect <http://sbiii.com/b-uattwn/meiii4/pix/limpmark.jpg>; Arthur (Rayner) Pardington was NOT the Engineer of the LIMP.  He was the V. P. and General Manager.  Sam, III

Me too, Dave! I liken Art and his buds planning in “The Office” to “The War Room” ( The Curse of Oak Island, History Channel ).

Good one Brian!

Man I really want to love that show, oak island. It’s right up all of our alleys you know? It has so much potential. But I’m always disappointed at the end of each episode! They’ve pulled every string in the world….when are they gonna find something???? I keep thinking the network couldn’t be on board unless they knew this was leading to something good….but it never happens. Enough with the analytics!

Thanks, Dave. We know their all being filmed,etc. But I/We can relate to everyone on that show. Wish they invite us all their!

Hunting Hitler is another favorite of mine. The psycho is dead by now, but I really get into their discoveries, etc.

Hi Art and anyone who are fans of ‘The Curse of Oak Island” series on the History Channel. The latest episode has Rick Lagina and Doug Crowell meeting up with Zena Halpern ( at her residence in Roslyn, NY ). She’s a writer/historian who researches the presence of the Knight Templars in Nova Scotia and nearby Oak Island. I think it’s neat that their research led them to our Long Island!
