Bowl of Clam Chowder |
We shared a bowl of clam chowder soup, Caesar Salad, with large grilled shrimp, and bread with butter, drank water with lemon, and finished the meal with bonbons. (Bon Bons are a bite-size ice cream dipped in chocolate.)

The Classic Caesar salad had romaine hearts, garlic croutons, and Shaved Romano, topped with creamy dressing and jumbo grilled shrimp. The Rhode Island clam chowder had clams, potatoes, and Chourico.
With my daughter's Rhode Island library card, we visited the Rhode Island School of Design "RISD" at 224 Benefited St Providence RI 02903.
The RISD Museum has three floors and six levels.
The top level was a replica of Pendleton house early 18th & 19th Century.
There were six galleries: Donglia Center Asian, Grand Gallery, Fin Danforth Gallery, and the Porcelain. Gallery, Chase Gallery & Gelman Gallery!

Art Museum |
Throughout the week, it is had to find parking and we finally found parking next to
The Carrie Tower at Brown University is located at Waterman and Prospect Streets.
We only had enough money to put in the meter for one hour. My daughter would walk back to the car one hour later to refill the meter.
We walked through all six levels of the Art Museum and exited through the gift shop that was on the ground level that led out into the old historic town of Providence.
We walked passed Rhode Island's Design Market House and the Korean War Marker.
At Brown University we walked past John Ray Library, next to, it was the Howard Phillip Lovecraft’s Plaque; at the entrance gate, we saw the Ezekiel Gilman Robinson LLD President of Brown University 1872-1889 plaque and the Clock tower.
As we were leaving Brown University, we saw metal children dancing around a tree.
We walked along the canal where we saw The Jalbert Warner Memorial Pedestrians Bridge.
Every other Saturday the Boy Scouts light the way along the canal and boat rides are available.

The Jalbert Warner Memorial Pedestrians Bridge |
In the financial district, we saw two people repelling down a large building (built in 1917), and looked like they had I Pad in their hands? What was up with that? We also saw the Arcade building.
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDBTX3SWT7QPOaC4KUtQGfYbVlf5q7KWYJ5P4sWNjdZY58dILlTN1XvmITAzn5FBGlD7BlrAPke-0FV32-PMxIAKsrn1O1xsIXFkLh785cdusohtkhmsFe9zdNr7SbK5Wph9ebt4N9iNQ/s320/DSC_2140.jpg) |
People Repelling |
On the Post Office circle, we walked past Burnside Park, the Federal Building, and the Post Office.
We walked past the Fleur-de-lys Studio that was across the street from The First Baptist Church founded by Rogers Williams.
After we finished sightseeing, my daughter drove back to Rochambeau Library to return her free pass to the RISD Museum.
My daughter drove to Planet Hollywood in New Bedford to cancel her gym membership but they said she would have to cancel at the gym where she started her membership.
We went to Aldie where we bought tuna, pickles, ice cream, water, Cool Whip, cucumber, bananas, and blueberries.
Back at my daughter's third-floor apartment, she made a Tuna Salad for dinner that consisted of boiled eggs, tuna, olives, pickles, and onions.
After the long flight, visiting the RISD, and walking several blocks in Historic Providence I was ready to rest.
Therefore, we both climbed into bed and watched Net Flex.
We both were asleep by the time our heads hit the pillows.
Day 2: Wednesday, July 16, 2014
My daughter went to work at 11:00 A.M.
It rained all morning, by noon, the rain had stopped, but it was still cloudy.
Therefore, I decided to venture out of the apartment. I looked around taking notice of where I was, taking pictures of the area so I would not get lost.
I started walking from Gano Street to Waterman Street, down Butler, and onto Angel Street stopping at CVS where I bought myself a large Hershey Chocolate Candy bar with almonds and toffee.
I walked one block down Geno Street and two blocks down on Pitman Street where I saw a Rite Aid.
Behind Rite Aid was the Eastside Market; I did not stop to shop.
I did stop long enough to take pictures of the murals that were on the back wall of the Rite Aide building.
I could see the Seekonk River behind the Eastside Market so I walked past the grocery store down to the river. Where I took pictures of the Seekonk River and the stuck-up bridge (an old disconnected bridge that people call an eyesore)
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWkiibGoo5e-1LKXGr571mgcv70deCT9MC0N1gl5UI5SVILJdQHfHsXWR_rJ0YYVgteSLoLmhI7Q4GodLt-r9kDhEMU7wazG_EB0dO4lcHU0BC-Y5yRkJERhOIMBnwcrSEQJNds5kacGg/s320/DSC_2246.jpg) |
Stuck up Bridge |
It started to get dark and looked very much like rain so I started my walk back to the apartment.
I was only three and a half blocks from the apartment and was about ½ block away when the rain came.
I could see it coming; I could feel it in the air but it was too far away to beat it.
It hit me like a pail of water. I was drenched; you could not find a dry spot on me.
I tried to cover my camera with my shirt but it was soaked.
When I finally reached the apartment, I took off all my clothes climbed into the shower, and took a long hot shower. I put my wet clothes in front of the air conditioner to dry.
I snuggled into the warm bed turned on Netflix and watched a series of shows about three girls becoming mermaids. H2O Just add a little water.
For breakfast, my daughter made French toast with bananas, and blueberries topped with Cool Whip. She made her lunch and was off to work.
I ate leftover Tuna Salad for lunch.
A man came by to install a fire alarm.
My daughter mixed up a protein shake after she got home from work, which we drank for supper.
We climbed into bed and watched The Guilt Trip with Barbara Streisand on Net Flex.
Day 3: Thursday, July 17, 2014
My daughter bought tickets online at Captain John’s for $30.00 each for us to go whale watching at 2P.M. Their tickets go fast.
We had several hours to kill so my daughter drove to Fall River and we stopped at Battleship Park to see the Battle Ship USS Massachusetts (BB-58) that was located on the Taunton River and Mt Hope Bay.
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgVs9bWDxzbGFZ1U-d8WQLBttdJPpGcldjU40ncOBn9pEAmhy7DVkwOEYW5yPrqOoPtuNRQMV4RQmOcGJZ_7qzbPeZyrVDDJ24cs9iRbDnPQ2y5ac14k7wyb5y6EvuQ_pb0D7xbkdY-EM/s320/IMG_8137.jpg) |
Battle Ship USS Massachusetts (BB-58) |
The battleship was partly under Braganza Bridge.
The Braganza Bridge was being repaired and it had very large, noisy, vacuum pipes connected to it to collect the debris.
All in the same area was the Railroad Museum which was closed.
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqys35rLDCIjnJWjZIdUOb6rfXWlPRLVePZvZ0stakGsAjjG13TjYUtT40nimA3v_ZaDUikzSgAQvJdQRlOi_9Uyu0Ec2IU3sLG8lgNuAvLtcyZwH-TkFJeHKECmW_mQrPbqaDz8vSOfs/s320/DSC_2295.jpg) |

Lincoln Park Carousel |
There was a lot of construction going on in this area.
Our next stop was in New Bedford.
My daughter parked the car next to a meter and Captain Paul Cuff Park.
I took pictures of Captain Paul Cuff, Trial By Fire, Captain Paul Cuff Compass, and History Markers and we saw a large coffee pot hanging on the side of a building.
Then we proceeded to walk up to Johnny Cake Hill Street (a one-way street). We walked past a sign that read: Preservation Works! We walked past Saving Mariner’s Souls and the Seaman’s Bethel Church, The Mariner’s Home built in 1787, the Corson Building, Arthur Moniz Gallery, and Whaleman's Shipping List.

Captain Paull Cuff Park and Johnny Cake Hill Sign |
We stopped outside the Jonathan Bourne Whale Museum where we saw the sign that read: Preserving Whaling’s Legacy: The New Bedford Whaling Museum.
We saw a small boat, a sign welcoming the Charles Morgan from June 28 through July 6, a telescope, tables with umbrellas, a whale statue, a large squid hanging off the side of the building, and a sign underneath reading:
Erik Durant
“Giant Squid”
Part of the outdoor sculpture project:
“In the unequal Cross-lights: Contemporary Sculptors
Responding to the Whaling Museum Collections”
A collaborative art project between the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, and the New Bedford Whaling Museum.
Please do not touch or climb on the sculptures
A man walked up to us and said, “My son made that sculpture.”

Ship Lagoda |
We saw Paintings, drawings, manuscripts, books, photographs, maps, charts, navigational Instruments, whaling prints, and ethnological, and tribal art objects.
New Bedford housed the most outstanding collections of scrimshaw (the practice of drawing on whale teeth or other forms of Ivory), such as canes, watches, hutches, birdcages, pie crimpers, and many, many other scrimshaw items.
We saw the world's longest painting “Whaling Voyage ‘Round the World’.

Whaling Voyage Round the World |
My daughter went to get the car and I walked across the street to the Seaman Bethel Church at 15 Johnny Cake Hill.
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEin73aA0zER77OB8vRzNzJtkmnexcTaBJzmQr7_qyWsf70yf4ss1r531lK68d33lWFWTPmbVkbDEAuGKtSbM7g3lvqpIGcf1nWh1mI9TIblFPBJy0bc3GmazurQvTUrl23sK80cRFiH8LU/s320/DSC_2577.jpg) |
Inside of the Seaman Bethel Church |
In 1851, Herman Melville published his famous tale of the white whale. In it, he wrote:
"In this same New Bedford, there stands a Whaleman's Chapel, and few are the moody fishermen, shortly bound for the Indian Ocean or Pacific, who fail to make a Sunday visit to the spot."Moby-Dick, by Herman Melville
We ate lunch at Black Whales Sea Food and Raw Bar in New Bedford located at Pier 3.
We both ordered Cod Fish Sandwich, which came with Coleslaw and fries it cost 6.99 each with water with lemon to drink.
Sitting in front of the Black Whale Restaurant was a giant, blue, wooden chair. I climbed into it and she took my picture.
I walked along Pier 3, which was covered with fishing boats. I saw the Halima M, Hear no Evil, Alaska, Mistress, Janice & Jud, Hedy Brenna, Police boats, and many others. I walked past the City Wharfing which now housed the Visitors Center. It still had a bell, and the American Flag attached to it.
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-A6JQwBc5vXtWnrbbt9PVIufqCERxXtKO9ZH2_6NAyM7rBi_sq74BR3H-5kc466ju-1HROu8X8SrF2gqeQQoLHUaEWpdyEik0VWsMwhQDF1LfYscpga0a5k0__Qf5bxemrIShmP_W1jI/s320/DSC_2604.jpg) |
Pier 3 |
I saw the Whaling Capital, Working Waterfront, A Whaling Town, From Whales to Flatfish and Scallops Markers, and a large sign that read PIER 3.
Now we are on our way to Plymouth, MA for our 2:00 PM whaling tour.
It took two boats to carry all the passengers and we were on the second boat (the spillover boat).
The pamphlet said you might need to bring a sweatshirt or jacket.
They were not kidding because the further we got out in the ocean and the faster the boat went the colder it got.
It was a beautiful day for whale watching and we stopped just short of our journey and saw a mother and her calf.
We journeyed further out into the ocean where we saw five whales together everyone was excited.
The whales would go deep into the ocean and come back up for air. The whale spits water into the air and he went back down again. They were never in the same place and our ship was constantly moving, turning, and following the whales.

Three Whales |
It was getting late so we headed back to the dock. My daughter and I went inside for most of the way back.
Such a beautiful day to take pictures with blue skies, white clouds, and islands dotted with houses, sailboats, fishing boats, paddle boats, cabin cruisers, and Lighthouses.
I took many pictures as we sailed passed the Mayflower ship, Plymouth Rock Memorial, and Plymouth Colony.
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTgpGWcDfn39ESKFS21oFHFiXGLjTbiVk8ptiC5DFFrRjptK0-0_BD5h9C7c7l0NNfBWxUuDtjG_go5v2DW8DID7oOFlaskUZA_cj8bNRVP-2L48TiXC2pSJ1CpPUk_LmQlgJohaxLiO0/s320/DSC_2965.jpg) |
Replica of the Mayflower |
There was a crowd of people leaving the tour and it took at least fifteen minutes to get off the boat.
The parking lots were full of tourists and we found a park just as someone was leaving.
We walked through the park to get a closer look at Plymouth Rock, the Mayflower Ship, and the Plymouth colony.
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVUH-cD5ze5b0lP2fIDUN8JdgT2XCslvy8HGCaKjz1gkY8uGhY43zH-RGa4iUDh8FiIBsofLlEhpe89Z7s4tRkD4G9rgrv7zDc9lr69pvTNTJxr3MOIOoxYJvEf7_TfcHl1JQGS-xm0_M/s320/DSC_2933.jpg) |
Plymouth Rock |
Plymouth Rock is the traditional site of disembarkation of William Bradford and the Mayflower Pilgrims who founded Plymouth Colony in 1620.
We walked through the town of Plymouth stopping to visit some of the graves of the early settlers at Burial Hill.
William Bradford the Pilgrim Governor, Edward Doty, Richard Warren, and John Howland were Mayflower passengers, William Brewster a Church Elder and Mary Allerton, the last surviving passenger of the Mayflower.
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1ylogq-blAFyQxvsutE9EWay7PYT_UNzgX2ChXvYsqsrtN_FgU18rloZm_HrJxt_HWo2kbA90W6yM47X4Kxkni_rG7RcOrsCj_75TQAM3ZjcVbhYnqYOkxB4fz7TQ7W0WFxjLpfFdmtg/s320/DSC_3023.jpg) |
Here lies the body of Mrs. Hannah Cooper the wife to Mr. John Cooper who died March 14th, 1763 aged 52 years 4 months, and 18 days |
I took pictures of the First Parish Church in Plymouth founded in 1620 by the Pilgrims; it is the oldest church in the US in continuous operation.
We saw a statue of William Bradford, Governor, and Historian of the Plymouth Colony.
We saw markers that read: Pilgrim Memorial State Park, Brewster Garden, (the Pilgrim Trail), Plymouth Waterfront, (telling about Plymouth Rock, Mayflower II, and Town Brook), Leyden Street (Telling about Leyden Street, Town Square, Burial Hill, and Current building and history), Cole’s Hill, (telling about the Massasoit Statue, The Bride Tree and the Sarcophagus.
As we were leaving Plymouth, we stopped at Papa Ginos for dinner.
We ordered a Greek Salad four cheese breadsticks and an oatmeal raisin cookie.
We ate at 7:31 and it was an hour's drive back to my daughter's apartment.
We were in bed and asleep by 11 P.M.
Day 4: Friday, July 18, 2014
Washed two loads of clothes, and talked to my daughter's proprietor Miss Marcie.
Marcie and I talked bout her two sons and ex-husband. She told me about his many wives and how he had called her, many times saying he was sorry for their breakup.
He begged her to come to Texas from Rhode Island so he left her two sons with her parents and took a bus to Texas.
When she arrived he then took a taxi to his apartment and knocked on the door. I took him several minutes to respond. He opened the door she walked inside only to find him with another woman.
She turned around and bought a ticket back to Rhode Island never to set foot again in Texas.
In her later years, she met a very nice, big husky man and they corresponded for some time. He got cancer of the throat and he moved in with her while she nursed him but he died a few years later.
We left a load of clothes in the dryer and one in the washer.
My daughter got ready for work and we rode to Fox Point so she could get her nails redone.
I wanted to explore India Park which is located in Fox Point along the Seekonk River
We parked next to Our Lady of the Rosary Church where I took pictures then I walked to India Park.
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnFR9rLcK3eo-ZVHDVy37suZtYg_DjPbnWBjCSSi1N50zKk6NyvK7pTy1k83tQk3yjpm-KoA8EIj9cVPHvttvNyI4dsqRbX04JSKndbi5XXuRPhtE4N4Z6W4hcXV4PI2NDgYl35m7GZAA/s320/DSC_3088.jpg) |
Our Lady of the Rosary Church |
I crossed over the very high India Point Park Bridge a bridge that crossed the I-195 Interstate.
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjPFhec3f4F-w8EokyYHr7XoQBXTeHpAoMVLwxRT9N5Hl-IE2IQsTTFMEMMwHQFb3DWJKdidQmnCIgMQTa3wp4chAACnBdDV-c7alxbAI0hHOO2UnK2UaFa8XrCVUoyBwxzocAEP80bkg/s320/DSC_3111.jpg) |
India Point Park Bridge |
After crossing the bridge, you walk several flights of stairs or if you are in a wheelchair, pushing a stroller, or riding a bike then there is a walkway for that too.
My daughter called me and said she was almost through getting her nails done so I started my walk back to the car. She was not finished so I walked through the stores in Fox Point.
I stopped at Sweet Berry 218 Wickened St Fox Point Providence, RI 02902, and bought myself a cheesecake yogurt, with almonds. I walked up Wickened Street eating my yogurt, saw a large brick wall that lined a storefront, and sat down to finish my yogurt.
I saw her come running down the street; she said I have to hurry because my work called me to be at work at 4PM.
We loaded into her car and headed back to her apartment which was just a few minutes away.
She was already dressed for work, she grabbed something for her dinner, and off she went.
I folded the last load of clothes
Ate the leftover salad from the day before and ate some banana pudding
I wrote in a journal for the rest of the afternoon.
That morning for breakfast we ate French toast with bananas and blueberries, cool whip and she made a fat-free banana pudding
Day 5: Saturday, July 19, 2014
We left the apartment at 5:30 A.M. Rode to the South County Hot Air Balloon Festival at the URI Athletic field at Keaney Rd Kingston, RI. To watch hot air balloons ascend into the sky at 6:30A.M.
We watched the balloon inflate there were four, and only one went up the other three were used for tethering.
Tethering a hot air balloon is inflated and operated onsite using a series of ropes to hold the balloon in place during the time the balloon is in operation and is very dependent on the weather.
We both tethered.
Our balloon held six people plus the pilot.
Our flight took five minutes to fly to the top of the ropes and down again.
As each person got out another took his or her place to keep the balloon balanced.
The cost to tether was fifteen dollars a person.

Hot air balloons |
What causes the hot air balloons to go up are the burners that are loosely modeled on the thrusters from the space shuttle.
The burners have coils and when you hit the blast on the burner, it allows the propane to go out of the tank, through the hose, and into the burner. The propane goes to the top and runs down the bottom of the burner where the jets are. It superheats the propane and gives you three times the amount of power if you just take raw propane and set it on fire.
My daughter drove to the beach and we stopped at Point Judith Light House built in 1856 octagonal granite tower painted upper half brown and lower half white and has a fog signal for a whistle.
Point Judith Lighthouse is located on the Westside entrance of Narragansett Bay.

Point Judith Light House |
The coastline is covered in rocks and visitors stack one rock upon another making a tower of rocks.
Instead of sandcastles, you have rock castles.

Tower of rocks |
Then on to Malcolm Grant Trail/Black Point Fishing which has two paths to walk, we chose one and walked to the Ocean.
There were many very large rocks, (boulders) where we stood taking pictures.
This area is just one of the few areas you do not pay to park.

We stopped at T'S Restaurant in Narragansett to eat breakfast.
We shared a waffle, scrambled egg with cheese each, each had two slices of bacon and a cup of fruit, and we washed it down with water and lemon.
Then we rode to Narragansett Beach where we stopped to use the restroom
We walked to the iconic Tower that now is just a remnant of the Narragansett Pier Casino built in 1880.
We walked to the top level of the tower what a view! We both took several pictures of the beach, the people on the beach, the people surfing and swimming.
Inside the tower was the visitor’s center where I bought a bottle of cold water and picked up a few brochures.
Across the road and under the arch of the tower was the art center.
The curator told us about the history of the Tower and several old pictures depicting the history of the tower.
We stop at Rick’s Roadhouse in Providence for dinner.
We shared a large plate of pulled chicken with tomatoes, olives, peppers, chips, cheese, sour cream, and guacamole dip.
This entire running around, getting up early was very tiring so both of us took a nap.
We had a late snack of banana pudding.
Day 6: Sunday, July 20, 2014
While my daughter was taking a show and getting ready, she said I should fill the croissants with the beef franks.
When she came into the kitchen she said, Mom what have you done to these croissants?
She said you have done it all wrong!
Well, she popped into the over Croissants filled with beef franks and we ate them.
After an eventful breakfast, we went to Rogers William Park.
We stopped at the Museum of Natural History and Platinum.
On the first floor are the main office, women, and men's rooms; lobby and check-in, Africa many places, many faces statue of pharaoh's daughter holding Moses, Couple of Painting on the lower level.

Day 7: Monday, July 21,2014
We are on our way to Fore River Shipyard, MA, to see the battleship USS Salem.
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9Q9D8u3Hd99mXoSaAEY4NcQFwapRP2G70mCfoYEEaLePqwPDxUm-erEWa4shr-iUTHkQvE2TEmYWHGnDXDa8oh9Z5RTDXDKiHHgHWpEhiu-WCIVCwLpSiPPs6v5kBrTpCGktnWLILSC0/s320/2014+July+21+Quincy+Ma+to+see+USS+Salem+CA-139-25+copy.jpeg) |
USS Salem |
The ship was docked; we could not board it because the pier was closed for repairs located at 729 Washington St Quincy, MA.
We then traveled through Boston to Charlestown Navy Ship Yard to climb aboard Charles W. Morgan's last Wooden Whaleship.
First, we had to find a place to park the car.
We parked on the side streets of Bunker Hill and walked up the steps to the monument.
We did not climb to the top of the monument that has 294 up and 294 down.
We talked to the Park Ranger he was from Gulf Shores, Al and I think he was glad to talk to someone from his home state, he said his commute was four hours every day.
He had to tell someone in the tower to get out of the window, for they could fall out the window, which was made of pledge glass.
We walked over to the Bunker Hill museum where two levels were telling about the battle of Bunker Hill.
We walked from Bunker Hill to the Navy Shipyard in Charlestown to see The USS Constitution, the Charles W. Morgan, and the USS Cassini Young DD793 (built-in 1943, a destroyer).
The Charles W. Morgan is making her 38th voyage and is berthed next to the USS Constitution.
The 19th-century Whaleship recently completed a 6-year restoration project at Mystic Seaport.
We stood in line so we could board the Charles W. Morgan, and then walked across the walkway to board the Cassin Young DD793.

My daughter ordered a large bar b q with Mac & cheese and water.
I ordered a small bar b q with chips and water.
After we finished eating, we walked back to Bunker Hill where we had parked the car.
We then rode somewhere to Parker Hill Library to get free tickets to Boston's Science Museum with her library card.
We then rode to the Boston Science Museum where we spent several hours I think we left around 6:30 P.M.

We rode to Quincy and ate dinner at Captain Fishbone.
We shared a plate of baked Scrod filet topped with mild vinaigrette, lightly breaded, and baked to perfection.
It was served with Green beans, garlic mashed potatoes, and fresh-cut onion rings.
My daughter ordered a glass of nutty Irish coffee.
We stopped at CVS in Quincy, I went inside and bought baby aspirins, headache tablets for her, a Hershey Symphony chocolate candy bar with toffee chips and almonds, and one diet Pepsi
She said she had a headache as she drove home.
She had a hard time going to sleep and she had to work the next day.
Day 8: Tuesday, July 22, 2014
Today my daughter worked and I stayed home and worked on this journal.
I did walk a few blocks up Water Street but my legs started to cramp so I came back to the apartment.
I baked three sweet potatoes and made tuna salad for supper.
I ate a plain bagel with tomatoes and cheese for lunch.
I packed my bags for my trip home tomorrow.
I watched two episodes of H2O the three girls that were mermaids.
We went to bed early.
My plane leaves at seven, board at 6:20 A.M. so I have to be at the airport before 6 A.M.
My daughter's work called and said she did not have to come in until 11 A.M.
I think she went back to bed after she dropped me off at the airport.
Day 9: Wednesday, July 23, 2014
We both got up at 4:30 A.M.
I took a shower, was dressed, and made sure I had packed everything.
My daughter's work called and said not to have to come in at 7 A.M. but to call about 9A.M. to see if they needed her then.
Our plane started boarding at 6:20 A.M.
I sat next to a woman traveling to Wisconsin.
She said her husband had taken a job two years ago in Wisconsin and was the marketing manager for small appliances there.
She had a good job in Rhode Island working for an Insurance Company.
She said that she and her husband had computed back and forth for the last two years. They had two sons in college and she loved her job and did not want to move.
The flight attendant served me cranberry juice pretzels and a cookie.
When we arrived in Detroit, we said goodbye.
My gate was Gate C6, which was a very long way from Gate A 12.
I had to take the first flight of stairs (escalators) to the Express Tram South Station, which took me to the Express Tram Terminal Station, where I got off.
Then I took another set of escalators down and walked past the water feature, through the tunnel.
The tunnel was cool, it had revolving sides that changed colors, red, and blue, yellow, and had two moving sidewalks on each side.
There were two sets of escalators going upstairs one for gate B and one for Gate C.
Finally, I arrived at Gate 6.
The people started boarding the plane while I had gone to the restroom.
I sat next to a man who was traveling from Iowa back home to Huntsville.
He was not very talkative; he was looking at the pictures on his phone.
I asked him if those were vacation pictures and he said they were from a prior trip to Luxembourg, and Germany.
This trip was a business trip.
I tried to take a nap.
We were served cranberry juice, pretzels, and cookies.
When we got closer to Huntsville, I took out my camera and started taking pictures.
We finally arrived at Huntsville Airport.
I went to the restroom while waiting for my bag.
I changed the lenses in my camera and started taking pictures in the airport of their pictures depicting space, what Huntsville is known for.
Hubby was waiting for me at the airport.
I loaded my luggage into the van and off we went to Athens to eat lunch at Logan's.
I ordered a sirloin steak, Caesar salad, and sweet potato. (I had enough left over that; hubby took for lunch the next day.)
We arrived home at about 2 P.M.
Up uploaded a few of my pictures to Flickr and to my computer.
I called Charity to ask the boys if they wanted to go to the movies tomorrow.
Thursdays are a four-dollar day; you get a movie, small popcorn, and small coke.
While on my trip we visited four museums, Science, Natural History, Art, Bunker Hill, and Whaling.
We saw several ships/boats Captain John’s Whaling Boat, Mayflower II, USS Massachusetts, USS Constitution, USS Salem, and USS Cassini Young DD793 go aboard all but two.
We rode along the beaches of Rhode Island, walked in India Park, Up Lovecraft’s College Hill, and through Brown University, the Historic town of Providence. We walked to Bunker Hill, to the Navy Pier in Charlestown. We walked through the town of Plymouth. We visited the zoo in Providence.
We ate cod & scrod fish, shrimp, clam chowder, Greek salad, bon, bon, pulled chicken and lots more.
