If you’re wondering why it’s been quiet here on A Scholarly Skater, it’s because I’ve been out of town. I just returned from Newport, Rhode Island, where I saw eight spectacular Gilded Age mansions in three days!

I’ve just downloaded all of my photos from the trip (425 in total), and I’m starting to write about my experiences. I’m going to be typing for a while, so enjoy a few photos in the meantime.

Since I’m never content to work on only one project or subject at a time, I’m also reading several wonderful books about Gothic cathedrals and working on an awesome art appreciation project with some help from a friend. All of that will be coming up as well.


They are wonderful, we saw them all in 2015, loved everyone of them, look forward to your take on them 🙂
I’ll try not to disappoint. 🙂
I’m sure you won’t 🙂
