I visited my home state for a few days and besides the copious amounts of seafood I ate, managed to get in a short hike to one of my old stomping ground in the Arcadia Mgmt Area (state forest basically). Foliage was about peak all last week. Wish I had more time to get in a 'real' hike, but Mom would not have liked that. ;)

This photo is from Beach Pond and is a rather peaceful place. Right at the CT/RI border:

Oh sure...you come to RI and don't call me for a hike? I'm out here in "No Appalachian Mountains Land"..Throw me a crumb already! But seriously, let us know you're nearby next time and we'll get a magic bag to you. :)

What a great shot.

I can only imagine the photo you could take of the the ridge at Norman Bird Sanctuary in Newport.

Yes indeed.

Time was short there with all the family obligations. :)

Did you get your New England accent back the moment you got into town?

Nice photo. I haven't been to Arcadia in years. I hope you enjoyed your stay back in the biggest little state in the union. I plan on making a pilgrimage there next weekend. :)
