Helmut Rhode war der Architekt

I made a trip yesterday to Block Island, which was of course more challenging than usual due to Covid concerns. Block Island is about 12 miles off the coast of Rhode Island. I’d never been there off season before. A surprising number of people were on the ferry, but we were all of course wearing masks and “distancing” as required. I rented a bike and went out to Mohegan Bluffs, which are probably the most impressive cliffs you can find anywhere in New England. Anyway, New Shoreham, the town which technically covers the whole of Block Island, has a population of about 1100 inhabitants, they market themselves as the “smallest town in the smallest state”.

There are a surprising number of cars for such a small island. I saw a bumper sticker that read “Block Island, social distancing since 1651” :)

If you zoom in, you can see the stairs going down to the beach.

You can also see South East Lighthouse from 1875, more about that coming.

The Rhode Island azaleas in are in full bloom! Enjoy!

Rhode Island has many small waterfront towns. Wickford is one of my favorite.

Actually, taken in April 1992. I went to Newport with my husband and while he spent the time in a work conference, I got to visit the Cliff Walk and a few mansions. Wonderful memories!

In Rhode Island for a weekend for my friend's wedding.

Olympe Rhode is a good friend.

And I am a teasing friend. As she likes steampunk art, I decided to make this digital creation on her photo profile.

Olympe owns Galerie des Machines, an art gallery on Secondlife sim Paris 1900 for exhibit RL and SL artists art.
