Textures & Tastes of Newport RI

Wednesday dawned bright & sunny, but with a chill wind. We decided to take a walk  around Newport.

   The Trinity Church. is a famous spot. Built in the 1700's, George Washington actually attended a service here.

Several movies have used this church. Amistad among them.

I love these narrow walks between some of the buildings,

 these gnarly trees.

We checked out Cupcake Charlie's.

A peanut butter bliss, & chocolate mint just had to come home with us for later.

They were wicked good! Good thing we walked & swam today.

Here are some of my favorite architectural details & textures from our walk:

I loved this little dress. I wish I cold buy it for one of my grandgirls.

Back at the condo Warren & I took advantage of the pool & hot tub.

I loved the ceiling  tiles. Like doing my own synchronized swim show

I got this hat today because I was cold.

while these crazy kids were jumping in the water!

                                             We had dinner at Yesterday's Ale House.

The proprietor told me these tiles were laid in the 1930's, 1 tile at  time.

The food was great.

                                       

Warren had to try the bread pudding.
