While there dining on delicious meals prepared and served by the hosts (especially Jimmie) was a delightful experience following long drives and dining out. A drive to Narragansett provided another fantastic dining experience on local seafood at George’s overlooking the bay and viewing the coming and going of the Block Island Ferry. They also enjoyed visiting with Alben’s and Jimmie’s neighbors Anna and Chris and other friends traveling into town to meet and greet them. Thanks everyone for your travel blessing prayers!!!
