Hey Don:
If the weather is good I'll do up to a day trip. Where were you last week when Noreen and I went to the RI? Let's get together on a shore run!

Don, Bob--wonderful idea. If I get my new engine running dependably---I'll contact you---could meet you in Newport---have quite a few "ins" due to SPNEA membership, Newport Historical and Preservation Society activities--also know some hidden architectural/archaeological treasures.

Viewing the interiors of Peter Harrison's Touro Synogogue and Redwood Library, then lunch at the Court$ide Restaurant (Newport Casino) followed by a blast out Bellevue and around Ocean Drivve souhd like fun? Even better, finish with a few on-board tours of 6 restored 12-meters at Ft. Adams?

I don't want to horn in, but I do this sort of thing semi-professionally and would be delighted to join you...
