Photos 2 and 3: the local residents of the Water Island Community Association collected the colorful benches that appeared on Honeymoon Beach two winters ago and sanded and painted them today. I told them how much we appreciate those benches, and was told how they came to be...one of them had constructed all of them as a memorial to a couple who had lived in the house that used to be pink (now it's aqua) up on the hill to the right overlooking the beach. They're gone now, but they loved that beach and did a lot for Water Island while they were alive. What a nice way to be remembered. The benches are so colorful; they add a lot of beauty to Honeymoon Beach!
