Day 78 - March 19, 2010

One of my favorite things to do when I lived in Newport was to take a bike ride along Ocean Drive and just enjoy the scenery. There are mansions galore, and beautiful views of the ocean! I used to stop about halfway along on my ride - right about where this picture was taken - near Breton Point State Park. The road is right up against the coastline, and there are jagged rock outcroppings to climb on and sit on. Today, we went out there and there were a ton of waves! We were actually just out of reach of where the water was splashing, which was kind of fun! I would have gone closer, but I had my camera, and I didn't want it to get wet. Anyways, I loved sitting out here and just enjoying life. Things like this make me miss living in Newport! But now we're back home - and I love it here too :)

Until Tomorrow,

Day 77 - March 18, 2010

A while back, my parents booked a week in Newport, but were not going to be able to stay the last night at their resort, and so offered us the unit for the last night. Well, here we are, in Newport, and what a beautiful day it was! The view from our room is amazing - which is what this picture is of. The clouds were wispy and the sun setting made it look like a painting! We got to our room, changed, and headed out to dinner at the Red Parrot, one of my favorite restaurants in Newport! We're watching a bit of basketball before getting a good night's sleep. Tomorrow, we'll spend the morning here and then head back home. Sometimes, it's just nice to get away! I sure do miss Newport!

Until Tomorrow,
