It Has Seen Better Days


There are many abandoned old shacks along Oyster Bay, which were used by fishermen decades ago. This one had moss and lichen growing all over the roof and barnacles stuck to the pilings. You can see that the tide has come all the way up to the flooring at times, probably making the building musty and moldy.

Oyster bay is a pristine, healthy ecosystem, with clear water and much aquatic life. It is also one of the older neighborhoods - with many quaint little cabins built with rustic charm.
