It's so romantic and Beautiful, it
changes with every season. Tony and I love it here,

Newport

 Tony and I had planned to go to Newport
for St. Paddy's day but because of an unfortunate car
accident we had to postpone it. It ended up working in our favor
because we rescheduled it on restaurant week. Pretty much
all we did was EAT. three course meals three times a day, it was
crazy. we were finally able to get a reservation at the spiced pear
it's the first "summer cottage" on the Cliff walk and the view is so
whimsical, right out of a nautical painting. We also ate at other fabulous places like
22 Bowen, Skell's and Shells, the Red Parrot and many more...
We did a lot of hiking and walking and
of course antiquing. It really doesn't take a whole lot to entertain me especially
when your in a beautiful little town like Newport.

"We'll always have Summer..."

***
He came up and kissed me on my forehead, and before he stepped away, I closed my eyes and tried hard to memorize this moment. I wanted to remember him exactly as he was right then, how his arms looked, how everything looked and the way his hair was cut a little too short in the front.
Then he was gone.

Just for that moment, the thought that I might never see him again… it felt worse than death. I wanted to run after him. Tell him anything, everything. Just don’t go. Please just never go. Please just always be near me, so I can at least see you.

Because it felt final. I always believed that we would find our way back to each other every time. That no matter what, we would be connected—by our history. But this time, this last time, it felt final. Like I would never see him again, or that when I did, it would be different, there would be a mountain between us.

I knew it in my bones. That this time was it. I had finally made my choice, and so had he. He let me go, which I expected. What I didn’t expect was to feel so much grief.
