We enjoy taking day trip visiting different New England towns and the surrounding area. On this day we took a trip to Newport Rhode Island. A short drive from Boston. We took a stroll along the Cliff Walk as the tide was coming in. This always makes for exciting and interesting photos. You can see some of the mansions along the way and interesting architecture. From there we visited one of the harbors when we noticed a large ship. At first it look like it a moored just off shore however it was actually moving and coming into dock. Come to find out as we spoke with the crew this ship was a training ship that people can sign up for the summer months. It was not the ship they usually use as it was in for restoration so the captain had to rent this one for the season. From her we went down town Newport for dinner over looking the harbor. It was a great night as the sun set over the harbor and the dinner was great. Here are a few photos we took during the day. Please enjoy them.

Hurricane Earl, the aftermath
5 09 2010Hurricane Earl came and went on September 3, 2010 as a tropical storm by the time it reached the New England area.
This report is on the day after the storm, Sept. 4th 2010. The sun is out, weather is
great for labor day weekend and we dodged a bullet this time as far as storms go.
For us hardy New England people it was the anticipation for what we know what could have been a very different story.
So, always be prepared for the worst and hope for the best as we do. The long holiday
weekend has just begun.
Enjoy it!
