The Ocean State

Our journey continued through CT and into RI with more rain and occasional glimpses of the ocean. I always get excited to see the familiar sight of the Newport Pell Bridge that means we're almost there. I can almost taste the clam chowder (or should I say "chowda") and feel the sand between my toes at 2nd beach. I couldn't wait to introduce Fred to all of my favorite places!

I wasn't about to let a little rain stop us from enjoying the sights. I spotted this rainbow over my grandparents' house in Newport, where we were staying. They have a spectacular old house that, like much of Newport, is full of history.
