The Newark Museum…
The Newark Museum, Newark, New Jersey
Recently I visited the Newark Museum, a place I hadn’t been to since I was in high school many years ago.
This beautiful work of art is covered with sequins…
Let’s wander..
I have no idea what these are but I liked them 🙂
Moving on…
According to Wikipedia: The John Ballantine House was the home of Jeannette Boyd (1838–1919) and John Holme Ballantine (1834–1895). John was the son of Peter Ballantine, founder of the Ballantine beer brewery. The house was built in 1885 at 49 Washington Street in the Washington Park section of Newark, Essex County, New Jersey, United States. It is now part of the Newark Museum and is open to the public for tours.
Also part of the Newark Museum is the Newark Fire Museum…
This is only a little bit of what the beautiful and amazing Newark Museum has to offer.

Newport, RI – Part 4 – Kingscote…
Kingscote, our final mansion.
George Noble Jones, a southern plantation owner constructed this Gothic Revival style summer cottage in 1839 along a farm path known as Bellevue Avenue. Designed by Richard Upjohn, the house is an early example of the picturesque Gothic Revival style, with its irregular and busy roofline. Kingscote was one of the first summer “cottages” constructed in Newport. It was owned by the King family from 1863 until 1972, when it was given to the Preservation Society of Newport County.

According to the Preservation Society of Newport County: Today, Kingscote is a rare example of a Gothic Revival house and landscape setting preserved intact with original family collections.
Hope you’ve enjoyed our mansion tours, we had a lot of fun.
