Instagraming Providence…

Not long ago Mr O and I and my iphone spent a lovely spring evening in Providence.  I might feel intimidated walking around with my big camera but not so with the little iphone…and I am still addicted to Instagram.
We saw bunny clouds…

pencils…

and stencils.

There were moules frites for dinner…

and there was plenty of time for a walk around town before the show started…








and then on to laugh at the stories of David Sedaris.

At the RISD Museum…

If you don’t plan on staying too long, taking little ones to a museum can be fun. The RISD museum in the center of Providence is a nice size to visit…not too big. Of course it helps if you know that stair climbing can be better than any of the exhibits…

…and if any glass exhibits are out of reach…

…and if there is a big, empty room with just a wild carpet in it…

…and if there is a fun truck outside the window to look at…

…and if some of the sculptures are outside.

Later, a stroll by the Providence River…

…and cooling off at a fountain complete that cloudy Sunday.

A Night on the Town...

Mr O and I went out for dinner at a wonderful restaurant in the city...there was a special menu of Hanukkah small plates and we enjoyed all we tried..three types of latkes, lox on toasts, brisket, and an aromatic chicken tagine with pickled kumquats (my favorite)....I brought my camera but the few pictures I took of the food are poor...taking pics in a restaurant is challenging with the lighting and feeling self conscious! The two pictures here are taken after the dinner...the first Baptist Church and the big blue termite taken from the car window!
