Amazing that all three of these events occurred in the same week: first an earthquake, or at least some minor shaking, then a our son's wedding, and of course, Hurricane Irene.

The Mansions of Newport, the sea and sailing, and a glorious colonial history, including the firsts of many organized religious dwellings: churches, synagogues, meeting houses, art museums and America's oldest lending library.
