Newport Mansions
Rediscovering Rhode Island sites through the eyes of a newcomer is one of the many fun things about hosting an exchange student this year. One Sunday when Emily was working on a film (she got her IATSE card over the summer), I took Violet & Dani to see the Breakers and Marble House in Newport. It is hard to imagine how many people earned their livelihood maintaining these mansions and serving the owners.
