Becky & Mike Visit - Newport, RI - 'Cliff Walk' by the Ocean

No sooner had we said good-bye to Becky in Rochester, than she was back on our doorstep a few days later .... And she brought along her husband and dogs, too!

Actually, we had planned this visit for a while, and the Rochester trip for Becky (and us too, to a point) was more last minute. We hung out with Becky, Mike, and their dogs (which is swear is my kids favorite part of them visiting). We went to Newport, RI: Watercountry water park in NH, Rockport, MA; and the older, and not pregnant ones also went for a hike up Mt. Monadnock. It was a blast! We all enjoyed each other's company, and just doing things as a family.

Thanks for taking the time and vacation days to come see us!


Our first activity was to go on the famed "Cliff Walk" in Newport, RI. It is beautiful scenery. Both the ocean and the gorgeous old summer mansions of the rich and monopolistic (ie Vanderbilt's)


Going down the "40 steps"


Catching a little sea spray!




Rachel's shoes got a little bit wet after that shot :-)














Yay! A car with air conditioning! (away from the ocean it was a VERY warm day)
