FISHING: On Board Captain Bird's Flying Cloud A sandhog, three generations of Birds, and a 3-year-old boy named Joey were among the fortunate few swinging to Louis Armstrong and a gentle ocean swell aboard the Flying Cloud on the Fourth of July. Star Gardener A clump of white iris in the garden insistently drew my attention during the last half of June. Something about it in my garden in New Jersey prompted me to bring a piece to East Hampton. For the last 10 years I haven't paid it any attention. I thought it was a Siberian iris and let it go at that.
