We spent the afternoon in Providence, RI seeing some sights before heading to our final destination of Newport. Providence is an interesting city.  It appears to be undergoing a lot of building rehab in the downtown area, but it still has a long ways to go.  Areas around Brown College, Federal Hill, and I'm sure others provide bright spots of amazing houses, buildings, and boutique stores and restaurants.  By the advice of a friend we spent most of our time downtown.  Enjoying lunch at Local 121, shakes at the Cuban Revolution, and a quick art stop at AS220.  We arrived at our B&B and had dinner at the Brick Alley Pub and Restaurant.  

I had to go to campus today to a Fed Ex. It was another hot and humid one. Like where you sweat by sitting around. Anyway this is from the Washington Ave bridge showing the Mississippi, skyline, and the 35W scraps.

On an extremely hot and humid day (heat index of 111) we ventured out to the Powderhorn Art Fair and joined the sweaty masses enjoying great art. It was hard to linger because it was so hot, but it was fun and we saw some great art!

We borrowed a friends truck and picked up a buffet we found on Craigslist!

After running with my Ragnar team we ate Punch Pizza and hung out for awhile. This was on the way home.
