I went there like may be twice. It is always a magical place filled with I believe 6000 odd roses and i believe 3000 varieties of it. It is just like heaven. They also have a perennials garden and then there are the tulips always early spring. These roses just bloom and cover up the whole area. There are also concerts in the evenings and its just an awesome place to be.

Here is the link to the whole set.

Block Island

Block Island, originally uploaded by digijinx.

Had been to the big blue this summer with some of my friends. It was a Gal's day out (I havent done that in a very long time) and it was total fun.
Took the 30 minute ferry ride, of course after the 2.5hr drive from home and then we were there on the island...voila! We rented some bikes and drove around the island, all the uphill drive tiring us out but it was worth the climb and when we reached the lighthouse it was a beautiful sight. We also then visited the beach and some more beaches, before calling it a day. This is definitely on my summer to do list every year from now on.
