Newport, RI (week of Sept. 29 to Oct. 5)
Roy had a buisness conference in Newport Rhode Island this past week. We were gone from Sunday morning until late Thursday night. Note: Don't go so far if you're only going to be there 3 day😀. Our first full day there we were able to go on a large sailboat. I even helped hoist a sail (thanks to Roy volunteering me). It was a beautiful day. We enjoyed mid 60 degree temperatures each day and with the sunshine, it was perfect. The first night we had lobster for dinner. It was enjoyable, but expensive. I think I have a bit of my dad in me because I felt like it was too much to spend for one meal. I also decided I like shrimp and crab better than lobster, though it was very good. There were several regattas during our stay. Our hotel was right on the ocean This house is on an island in the middle of the bay. It can only be accessed by boat. We were told that it can be rented out--for $15,000 per week. It does have 10 bedrooms...but only one bath. Tuesday wa
