Last trip I'm going to write about for 2023 was another working trip, this time to Rhode Island. This will also be brief because I didn't take notes, but there are some pictures at https://photos.google.com/album/AF1QipMOFNYwXzxiWffZmn2pTeEdVuywUa1Tz7ODDBjw
Rhode Island is close enough that we just drove, but if you'll recall last summer there were these Canadian wildfires that made driving into New England feel a little like driving to Mordor. Our stay place was a rental in Bristol with lovely views of the bay and fortunately the ash cloud did lift.
We got several good hikes in including the famous Cliff Walk in Newport and one at the Sachuest Point wildlife refuge. Lots of good food including lobster rolls and poutine. We happened upon a car show right in Bristol where I took a bunch of pictures. Popped across the border to Fall River, MA to visit the Lizzie Borden house which gave a well done and informative tour. Last outing was over to Tiverton, a quieter more rural bit of Rhode Island that included a cheese chop and some art galleries.
