Does anyone remember the mountain with all the monkees living in it? I think it was on Montauk Hwy in Massapequa.

While I am not old enough to remember it, I have read and seen news clips -- Frank Buck's Jungle Camp. I remember when News12 was really new (1988 or 89) they would play LI related newsreels; one of my favorites was the Frank Buck monkey one.

Anyone remember the Farrells ice Cream Parlour there? They had a 20 scoop concoction that I think was called the ZOO.....Not sure if that's right, but I remember it being like the Kitchen Sink at Jahns.

I remember La Crepe. I'm from Seaford and I clearly remember driving up to the north shore for crepes. Also going to Swensons for huge ice cream sundaes for dessert. It's insane, all my memories revolve around food.

Just a quick note. Wickers is still there. Hard to believe, but it is.
