Wednesday a walk to the Falls which are really cascades. Many paths, took a hard one and then a nice easier one. Not one damn wildlife spotted. Not even a chipmunk! After dinner, however, saw a duck and a heron/egret on a nearby pond (with binoculars).
Got home to broken front door lock. Oh well.
Impromtu dinner of grilled shrimp and sperg
Afternoon exploratory walk past the weird RR crossing up to the water
Dinner at deWolf’s Tavern:
Cod with clams, fingerlings and a Portuguese sauce.
Sudden gale during walk.
Le Bec Sucre out of all but baguettes. We purchased one and it was pretty good. Then to Custom House Coffee for yogurt parfaits, pastry and good coffee.
Off on our first walk
Nice ride out to the southern beaches. Beautiful loop walk. Visitor’s Center was closed. Quite a few other walkers.
Intended to to a comparison of Beyond and Impossible products. Could only get the Beyond ones. Sausage a loser, burger edible especially with fixins. Impossible sold out.
After many rounds with Apple support finally ended up taking M1 to Newport County repair. Fixed! Bad firmware.
Dinner at Marcia’s with Bruce, M&G
I strongly suspect it was caused by my complaining about some nickel and dime locker room key charges. As QB says, not our kind of people

Bed and chairs due today. Arrived without incident and had fast install
Tried the Waterworks Hot Tub again, this time after adding a mat and Keen shoes. Worked quite well. Yeah!
Welcoming/marketing drinks and dinner at the Aquidneck Club. Drinks with the Murphy’s and then fish dinner on the patio. Decent meal. Lots of wind walking each way.
Dinner with M&G
April 28. Wicked tulips and furniture shopping.
April 18, Sunday, most items put away and sorted, so a break….. first using of the gym! Well equipped but not well oiled. QB thinks not the quality level of Equinox.
Hot tub, waterworks in the apartment. Good tub, very slippery, no overflow valve. Hard to use this much water :-). Leg felt much better afterwards. Needs a rubber mat on bottom to get purchase; too hard to get out.
Tuesday: M &G arrive. Great to see them,
4/22 Thursday: incredible wind. Howling up in the apartment. Could barely put the chairs on the balcony. According to April this wind is abnormal, Generally windy around the tower but not like this.
Sunday 25th. First gathering of the Newport pod. Well, the pod plus Ellen and Evan (nephews of George), who are leaving the area tomorrow. Nine in total today, will be nine when Marcia and Bruce return from Florida. Dinner at Stoneacre brasserie in Newport. Handsome place designed by Dan. Sadly, food mediocre and not hot. Good setting and the only place that would take nine on rather short notice.
Sara and Lee came over for the yard sale. Took much of the left over decorator items. We will offer the balance to the staff here.
