happy weekend + headed East



In just a few days we're packing up the car for a road trip out East! Going to see my brother's Navy graduation in Newport, RI. We're not that familiar with the East coast so we'd love any ideas for must-see places along the way from Michigan (bonus if it involves great, local food).

One place I'm already excited to visit is the Tiverton Four Corners village (thanks to Caroline's tip). I know Q is thrilled at the thought of tagging along with me to a town filled with endless shops, historic homes, & farms for a day. Thankfully he's easily bribed by ice cream.
