Nice weekend. Saturday I didn't do a whole lot 'cuz I felt somewhat less than sunshine fresh, but yesterday I made the trek up the coast to Newport, RI, to hang with my old pal

dangerpest and my new cronie

nonamejane. She's a native of the island and knows all the hot spots where young, hep cats like us can catch a few good, clean thrills. Seriously, it is stunningly beautiful up there.

nonamejane describes it as the most beautiful place she's ever seen, and I can't argue. It's so serene out there--quite different from the beaches in Florida, which, as we discussed yesterday, are generally are pretty tawdry. Much fun was had traipsing through the oceanfront, exploring off-limits attractions (always the best kind), and enjoying signature Rhode Island treats such as frozen lemonade, chourico, and the inimitable Awful Awful. The weather cooperated quite nicely; beautiful sky with some kick-ass-crazy clouds, which always make for nice photos.

Speaking of photos, I'll post some right here before your very eyes. Thanks for the last one to pest, who took my pic when I could not, as I was busy, you know, sitting for it. Photos of my companions may follow if I obtain proper security clearance. ;)
