New England in Spring I


Last week, I left on a jet plane
now I'm back home again.


Southwest whisks me away from Chicago to Providence
in about two hours.  In fact, it takes almost as much time to get to the airport
as it does to travel to Providence.


This was my seventh trip to Rhode Island/New England
in the past five years.  Each trip brings a new adventure.


This "Ocean State" bridge welcomes one with art rather than graffiti.


The steeple of First Baptist Church 
has long been my focal point "guide" when I'm driving
about Providence.  Click First Baptist Church for an interesting 
history of the church.

I'll be back to share more of my visit out east.  I'm looking forward to catching up with each of you.

    I really want to take a trip to New England. I always have this dream to go to some great inn and spend Thanksgiving out there :)

    I like that painted bridge and a beautiful steeple.. we have a tall glass building here that we can see from all 4 points of the compass.. it directs us.
    it takes 6 hours to drive from here to Savannah. to fly is 7 hours. 1 hour is flight time. half hour to Atlanta 2 hour layover 1/2 hour to Savannah and 90 minutes to drive in.... if we could fly directly there it would be under an hour
