I don't think I even knew that RIPTA used RTS buses but I saw lots of them today. This one is in some kind of wrap but it was in Spanish, which I can't read, so I don't know what it said.
A labor day weekend in Rhode Island, while the weather wasn't sunny the sites were still fantastic. I love the lazy beachy days on the coast.

This is called "Clingstone" - it is someone's house. In 1938 a big hurricane hit New England and the storm surge went right thru the house. It has to be at least a half-mile from the nearest landing. A much enlarged crop - we didn't get very close.

The Audrain Building is an architecturally significant commercial building located at 220-230 Bellevue Avenue, Newport, Rhode Island.
The building was constructed 1902-1903 to designs by noted architect Bruce Price. It is one of four buildings that form a distinguished central block within Newport, the others being the Travers Block (Richard Morris Hunt), Newport Casino (McKim, Mead, and White), and King Block (Perkins and Betton).
The building is two stories tall and forms six shop-front bays, with exterior dimensions of 110 by 73.5 feet. It is faced in red brick with brightly colored terra cotta trim accentuating the bays and roofline. Street-level ornamentation is relatively restrained but increases at the arched second floor windows and cornice.
The Rhode Island Red is an American breed of chicken. It is a utility bird, raised for meat and eggs, and also as a show bird. It is a popular choice for backyard flocks because of its egg laying abilities and hardiness.
