We went in to see where my mom works today. She teaches a biology lab at a university here on the island. They had the day off today so it was very quiet around the campus. We were able to see the labs and classrooms where she works and enjoy the natural beauty of the area.
One of the old buildings that make up the campus. Some of the buildings are restored old mansions from days gone by. :)
The breakers. A mansion you can still tour (that used to be inhabited by the Vanderbilts?) that sits next to some of the campus buildings and overlooks the Atlantic ocean. My mom thinks the inside has an eerie resemblance to the haunted mansion at Disneyland ("is this haunted room actually stretching??").
Looking out across the water you can see more of the island. So New Englandy.

Looks like a really pretty area. How long are you guys staying there?
Looks like RI is a beautiful place...I would love to see that mansion. Hope you are having a blast. I hope to see you before I leave the island...I am flying out around the first of May. Do you have an idea of when you will be back on island? Take care...and tell Matthew that Payton says hello. ttys

This makes me home sick. My family moved out of the Newport ward the same year your parents moved in.
