The end of June found us in Rhode Island visiting Ted and Joanna Rolfes. It was a whirlwind tour with an inauspicious start as Richard's Friday night flight was delayed by several hours. We were undeterred, however, and spent a lovely Saturday visiting the Sachuest Point National Wildlife Refuge,
taking in the US World Cup loss to Ghana at a bar adjacent to Mudville (yes, THAT Mudville),
sailing on an America's Cup yacht off of Newport Beach, and finally making it back to Providence for Firewater under the full, if obscured, moon.
Sunday was decidedly more laid back with a five-course meal at a local winery and a walk around town. Who knew there was so much packed into such a small state?
