Sharon had the day off today, so we decided to head for Newport for the day and celebrate our 24th anniversary.

On the way I managed a few pictures and thought I'd share them with you.



Bristol Ferry Light

I've gone over the Mt. Hope bridge dozens of times and never new that this light was under the bridge. I wasn't able to get near the light as it is private property and construction workers were working on the bridge and I couldn't get out near the water to get other pictures. Will try again when contruction is done.



Goat Island, RI

Fence and private property kept me from getting closer.



Hog Island Shoals, RI

Without a boat, this was the best I could do!



Musselbed Shoals, RI

This is what's left of the footing on which Musselbeds Shoal Light once stood. Sad that this small lighthouse completely disappeared.

Needless to say we had a great day in Newport. Wonderful weather and a great wife to share it with!
