The mansions are a fabulous experience. I live in Providence, so I usually take visitors up to see them…only three left, but I have been to all the big ones

Who knew living a life of leisure as one of the Four Hundred required such a rigid schedule?

You’re welcome! The more I read about Newport, the more I want to go. If you do make it this fall, please blog about it!

I love this post. I’ve been dying to go to Newport for months now, and I’m trying to get it together to go this fall. Thanks for the interesting books that I know will be added to my book shelf.
