Running in Snug Harbor, Rhode Island



Running the Brooklyn Bridge



Running through Central Park



I'm heading to Myrtle Beach, SC for a week with my brother and his wife and kids. I'm excited about playing with the kids in the sand. Hopefully I'll get some runs in too.

Squeezed in some more scenic runs

It was 3 weeks ago now but I did make it to the Brooklyn Bridge. It was a gorgeous day and an exhilarating run. I got some great photos but haven't had a chance to transfer them to my computer yet.

I also got some good runs in during my stay in Rhode Island. My accommodations were near the beach at the southern tip of RI called Snug Harbor. I would do an out-and-back to East Matunuck Beach with great scenery along the way.

I also made it to Cape Cod. I met a couple in Thailand who was on a visa run from Malaysia. Turns out they're from Cape Cod and invited me to stay with them while I was in New England. We spent a few hours at the beach then had a late lunch at this really cool place with excellent lobster and clam chowder. YUM! I also got a chance to try some local brews. My favorite was the Cape Cod IPA. It went nicely with the lobster. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera that day so I can't promise to post any photos from there.

Next week I go with my brother and his family to Myrtle Beach. Looking forward to some fun kid time with my niece and nephew.
