Newport

Newport is treating us well. There are still some cold rainy days and we have had the heater on most nights. We have room on board if anyone from Florida wants a break from the heat! On the nice days it is gorgeous here. All the shops and homes have their Spring flowers planted to celebrate the good weather.

We have been visiting with Al's family, sightseeing and working on the boat. Al's daughter Christine and her husband Chris visited us

and left behind all kinds of food and drinks.

We spent a nice day with Al's dad and he helped us take the outboard motor to the shop. He also and brought us our favorite Portuguese bread.

We plan to be in this area all summer, traveling

around to places like Martha's Vineyard, Boston, Bristol, Providence and whatever looks good at the time. We'll be keeping up the blog and the pictures as we go.
