As wildfires continue to rage in the western Unite

As wildfires continue to rage in the western United States, smoke from the fires has spread across the entire country and reached as far east as Europe. You may have noticed unusually hazy skies in the past week caused by the smoke. The second image above is of the sunset which was taken at Stony Brook University on 9/14/20. Hazy conditions have made the entire disk of the Sun visible. The map showing the extent of the smoke comes from fire.airnow.gov. These wildfires have burned millions of acres of land with record breaking intensity which is linked to climate change causing hot and dry conditions.

As a summer retreat, Eagle’s Nest served as Mr.

As a summer retreat, Eagle’s Nest served as Mr. Vanderbilt’s personal country club where he could lavishly entertain himself and guests. In 1920 Mr. Vanderbilt even had a six-hole golf course added to the property. Supposedly designed by famed-architect Devereaux Emmett, the course would be played three times to make eighteen holes. Fitting Mr. Vanderbilt’s infamous sense of humor, each hole was named after one his many ships.
...
Eagle’s Nest had many other amenities to entertain guests. This included a saltwater pool built in 1924, which was filled with water from Northport Harbor using a special pumping system. There was also a tennis court where the planetarium now sits!
...
Among his other hobbies, Mr. Vanderbilt was quite fond of tennis and as such commissioned his own private tennis court for the property. The tennis court was built onto its own separate terrace with a formal garden and large flagpole. Like other areas of the property, this terrace took advantage of its views of Northport Bay.
...
While the tennis court was removed in 1970 to construct the Reichert Planetarium, the rose garden and flagpole were preserved so that guests could enjoy their sights to this day. #TBT

In 1910, William K. Vanderbilt II purchased this w

In 1910, William K. Vanderbilt II purchased this waterfront property in Centerport, NY as a getaway from the city and its social scene. Vanderbilt named his new estate “Eagle’s Nest” and had a small, 7-room English bungalow built overlooking the bay. By the 1930s though, after inheriting $23 million from his father, traveling around the world for his scientific expeditions, and marrying his second wife, Vanderbilt’s life had changed quite a bit, and the little house changed with him. From a small cottage, Eagle’s Nest grew into a sprawling 24-room Spanish Revival mansion. #tbt #vanderbilthistory
...
If you look at the later photos, you can still make out where the original cottage was! #museumfromhome
