What a lovely getaway. As a senior on a very limited budget... I live vicariously through you. Love flowers and gardens... and old silver!!! That would have drawn me in , also ,like a moth to a flame. The patina is everything to me. I don't shine my pieces, but prefer the visual history of age. I can't imagine how wonderful it would be to shop and , eat something wonderful, walk by the water, see the sights... then end up in that bath at the end of the day.... with a fire, a good book, and a glass of wine! I died and went to heaven!
What a delightful solo trip - beautiful flowers at the show, heavenly hotel, lovely strolls around town and along the Cliff Walk, and great shopping! Thank you, as always, for taking us along with you!
I love traveling with you, Linda. That’s the only travel I get. ❤ Since I love gardening, seeing this show was just phenomenal. Your room is exquisite. Thanks for sharing. .
I really enjoyed this video. I'm an 18th century girl stuck in the 21st century. I have never been to Newport thanks to Hurricane Ike. Twice we tried to go and twice the weather had other ideas. I would never left that beautiful bedroom. That is my kind of decorating. Thanks for your marvelous blog.
My husband and I attended the Newport Flower Show on Sunday morning. It was beautiful and as a proud member of the Worcester Garden Club our club was well represented. It was nice to experience the show again. Newport is a magical town. Thank you for the video.
How beautiful Newport is. Thanks for the packing tip--coordinating you colors to be able to mix and match--excellent idea. I'm so glad more shops were open for this video.
Thank you for sharing your trip to Newport, RI. Everything you showed in the video was exquisite! The Williamsburg, VA decor at the flower show and the room you chose were definitely the look and feel of Williamsburg, VA. A favorite place I visited as a young girl with my family!
Such a beautiful area with all the colors and kinds of florals. Thanks for showing all those gorgeous Hydrangea masses. My heart was filled with joy just viewing them! Thanks, Linda!!
Linda thank you for this charming tour, just so enjoyable and it felt so magical with the many beautiful blooms and various things decorated with flowers. I will definitely watch this video again as it was just lovely. Blessings ☮
A literal "Black fly in your Chardonnay (champagne)" Thanks for taking us on your travels. I'm keeping a list of places that I need to visit. I look forward to Sundays for each new video.
Gorgeous and spellbound! I was amazed at this besutiful video! The Williamsburg room was so enchanting and gorgeous I would never leave the room. This another one of your videos that I will watch 2 or 3 times it just drew me in.Thank you for taking us along on this journey with you your videos just keep better and better and so heart waarming. I Love living vicariously thru you.
I was just slowly scrolling tnru lookingfor something to watch and voil'a, here I am. I pondered, didn't think I would be interested. Wrong! I love it. Thank you.
Oh, my goodness! This video was just beautiful! I felt I was right along with you enjoying everything. We were thinking about a late summer/fall trip to New England. I suppose we should get to the planning stage. It is almost the 4th of July! Do you know why I love your videos so much? Besides, Good Queen Bess which I adore, they are so calming. You get right to the subject without talking too much, I love the subject matter of gardening and home decorating and the videos can be watched over and over and are still relevant. You add so many great ideas, too. Thank you, Linda.
Oh! Thanks for going to Newport! I lived one town to the west for most of my 77 years and how I miss it. Popping across the bridge for coffee and a croissant was no big thing. I was lucky to have a friend with a sailboat moored there and many hours were spent viewing Newport from the water. Alas, that was then and this is now (in Florida).
They totally nailed the Williamsburg room! I’ve stayed at the Williamsburg Inn before and I never wanted to leave! I am putting Newport on my bucket list. What a beautiful place.
Linda this was such a beautiful video! As I watched I thought of how much work you put into your videos….editing and just the right background music. You make it look so easy. I’ve been to the flower show many years ago and so enjoyed it! What a beautiful room in the Chandler Hotel. Thank you for the tour of historic Newport. Blessings!
Thank you. Definitely too pricey for this Canadian retiree’s budget so I am, vicariously, delighted with sharing this journey with you…….ahhh, morning espresso in bed in front of fireplace. And, yes, a wonky lampshade does put perfection into perspective. 😉
I know where I want to go next year! So miss the Boston Flower Show. Thank you for the lovely tour of Newport. Have you ever stopped in Wickford, RI. very small old town but fun shops. Have a great day and thank you. so much fun and good ideas.
Wow, was that a beautiful video. Thank you so much. The lush landscape and incredible properties were a wonderful treat to see. You are so appreciated.
Linda, thank you for this relaxing and enjoyable video. You make Sundays even better with your variety of content, great music selections, filming, and your engaging manner. Thank you for sharing this beautiful visit through Newport, with the flower show, historic sites, and the exquisite Chanler Inn at Cliff Walk. You inspired me to look it up online. I once drove through Newport many years ago and always wanted to return, but I never did so. Only through your camera lens do I get to see these wonderful places. God bless your "kindred spirit". Robert.
I'm embarrassed to say that I never attended the Newport flower show despite living in Rhode Island all my life! Definitely going next year. Beautiful video.
Lived in Rhode Island for 73 years. As many times as I have visited Newport, I have never been to the flower show. We love everything about Newport; especially how it has evolved over the years to what it is today. Glad you came back, Linda. Lovely video.
Me either, and I lived in Niantic, Ct., but happily I did attend Bostons flower show and it was awesome. Our daughter lives in Mystic, lovely area too.
My husband is from Newport RI so this is such a treat to watch! I’m from the westcoast and that is where we live now, but over the years I have really enjoyed our visits out there to see family! Lots of familiar places I see as I watch. I would love to say I’ve stayed in that fabulous room tho! Even the key is special! ❤
Gardens were lovely… Ive been to Lou Lou decor. Fun little shop… Btw that color looks like the color of my chair I painted from Benjamin Moore Williamsburg collection. It’s called Phillipsburg Blue
Hi Linda, this was such a beautiful video. The flower show, your hotel room, the town and gardens I found to be exquisite! I was not feeling well earlier, but after watching this video it has helped me feel better. Thank you for bringing us along to these beautiful places. 🙏❤️🌹
What an amazing video. I so enjoyed seeing all the beautiful floral arrangements and gardens.Your room was just magnificent. Thank you for taking us along on this fabulous road trip! You go to the most intriguing places. I get so many ideas! Love it....❤❤
Oh Linda, here I am in Florida, using that whole area. I loved going to Newport. I brought a lady from Kansas to Newport. She was so enthralled with the beautiful paintings that the guide kept admonishing her to” move along, please”! She was an artist and these wonderful paintings were so temptingly close. I think she was in heaven. My hubby’s cousin owned for many years a store called something like, The Mouse House? I remember it was adorable. Not exactly sure any more, we’ve been here 23 years. So glad you had fun, and I enjoyed it too.❤️
That was such a treat, Linda - thank you!! It was all so beautiful and I loved that room you stayed in. I did laugh loudly at the crooked lampshade - your reaction is sooo ME!😄
What a beautiful place.I have never taken a solo trip but you have inspired me to try it. Your Williamsburg room was just perfect to me. My husband and I loved Williamsburg and never tired of visiting there . Since my husband passed away my family thinks we should all go on vacation together but sometimes I just want alone time. I think I will make that trip again this fall . Have a great day.
Well Linda, that brought back some beautiful memories. We have been fortunate enough to visit Newport twice now.we love it down by the wharf. Kindest regards. Donna, uk
Just beautiful! Thanks for taking us along! Also, the music you played when showing the book with flowers tucked down in...always reminds me of Willow. I feel like it's her theme song! 🙂
Oh, my goodness Linda, you made me laugh out loud with the fly!! I always keep a glass of water by the bedside at night and never thought anything about taking a sip in the dark. Well, one night something hit my lip, I flew out of bed and turned on the light to find a deceased "stink bug" floating! I have made sure to cover my glass every night since, LOL!! I loved this video. I love Newport! That black and white (I think dress) you held up would look great on you. Thanks for taking us with you! 💗
Newport is a wonderful place to visit but getaways always come with a sense of belonging to return to the place we call home. Thanks for sharing Linda. ❤
Such an enjoyable video. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. The flowers especially the hydrangeas and roses were gorgeous. The area must be especially gorgeous in the autumn. Thank you for “taking me along” on your trip.
Linda, every week I find I like your channel more and more. My favorite segments are your day outings and short overnight trips. I so envy how and where you live! -you get to take in all that colonial history plus beautiful homes. Though I’ve traveled a lot, New England is a destination I’ve not made. Wouldn’t you know, just as I was planning my trip I fell ill. My health has become a serious matter and doesn’t give me opportunity to travel. In fact, my mobility too has changed. So thank you for seeing and doing much of what I would liked to have done. You cannot possibly know how grateful I am. Ps. Let’s hear those ghost stories.
Traveling with you is such a joy! Thank you so much for taking us with you!! I loved everything about this trip. I loved your idea of putting a candle in the car!
What a lovely enjoyable and beautiful way to spend some time with you, Linda. Thank you. The Williamsburg room reminded of my home growing up and my mother had the whole house in Apollo Room Blue which at that time was the name Martin Senour called the Williamsburg favorite blue paint. It was nice to see it again and the furniture, etc., a trip I'd certainly like to duplicate but rather far from Virginia.
Linda, thank you for taking us along. I honestly would kill to have that room you stayed in. So beautiful and cozy. That little shop that had all the nautical sweaters was to die for. I would have grabbed one of everything, lol. Can't wait to see what you got. I cannot believe that fly, in your room no less. How often would that happen???? Good grief. Great trip. xoxTXDeb
Wow, Linda, the building, the grounds & displays, breath taking ❤ Your hotel & room were so beautiful. I wouldn't have wanted to leave😊 I love New England, it's so beautiful. Thanks for taking us along.
The Williamsburg room was a wonderful choice! WOW, simply beautiful. It reminded me that I have window swags tucked away in a similar Jacobean print that I am going to take out to use in our bedroom. It needs a complete overhaul as I have not been able to decide how I wanted to “do it up”! Your video today has certainly given me such inspiration. Thank you, thank you. Everything was so lovely, the hotel, the shops and especially the gardens. What a wonderful trip. I really enjoyed it. Thanks for taking us along!
Hi Linda - my family & I have visited Newport too, but not when the flower show occurred. Newport reminds us what fine living really is. Thank you sharing your trip...such a joy!!!
This is so perfect! I'm planning a trip to Newport, RI now and I currently live in Richmond, VA about 30 minutes from Williamsburg so I love this so much!
Oh my goodness, I love this hotel and the atmosphere surrounding it! This is what I would give myself as an I love you present. This will be on my to do list, for sure!
When I visit historic places like Newport it just astounds me that these people were so rich and the craftsmen so talented. Nice that the state maintains them though. What a gorgeous place.
Oh my word Linda! I am just flabbergasted ! I had no idea there was so much to do in Rhode Island. I would have loved to visit there. Thanks a mill for taking me there. Next best thing since I won’t be able to go there myself. Cannot wait for the next adventure.
Perfectly edited video! A feast for the eyes and ears. Since I will never get to go there, i enjoyed this more than you know! Thanks for sharing. Love and hugs from Gloria in Mississippi
What a lovely trip, thank you for taking us with you and for sharing the link to the Kiel James Patrick store too! The room was just beautiful..sorry about the drunk fly! Have a great week!
Thanks for taking us along, Linda. This is my favorite of your travel videos. I will be watching it again. How beautiful are all the varieties of hydrangea! Some day I hope to visit Newport.
I lived so near Newport when I lived in Mass. great restaurants. Linda if you travel not far from there to Tiverton four corners, there is a place you would love. Cute boutique shops and Groundswell. The restaurant garden and home decor shops. All within walking paths. Cute and quaint.
I accidentally wrote my comments on another site so sorry…😂 You captured everything perfectly! The bedroom reminded me of your home. Loved the color of the wall with matching fireplace and the white comforter! The gardens were beautiful! Enjoy hearing about your ghostly experiences. Thanks for sharing your road-trip! ❤🪴🌸☕️
Beautiful video content , pure luxury escape for those wanting to take time out of the daily grind of stressful living .. to watch and i completely understand the need for privacy away from the madding crowd Linda .in conclusion 30 minutes of tume well spent . A huge Thank you ❤
What an amazing amount of talent it took to make such beautiful flower displays! Beautiful! And I absolutely love the old homes. ❤ I would love to paint my house the color of the White Horse Tavern
WOW! What a lovely adventure you took all of us on. I’ve been to Newport (Toured The Breakers) and a bit of the town, about 30+ yrs ago. I loved the quaintness of Rhode Island. I’ve never been to this lovely area…stunning. The gardens were beautiful. Loved the room you chose. That color would be lovely in your home. You should have used those bed steps to fix that lampshade, it would have made me cra, cra. lol I think my friends and I should do a girls trip to Newport. I know they’ve never been. TY❤
The drapery in your wonderful Williamsburg room,had the same pattern as two wingback chairs,I had years back,and sold for only $75 a chair! I loved them!
What a lovely getaway. As a senior on a very limited budget... I live vicariously through you. Love flowers and gardens... and old silver!!! That would have drawn me in , also ,like a moth to a flame. The patina is everything to me. I don't shine my pieces, but prefer the visual history of age.

Thank you Linda!!! Taking us on your trip was amazing... loved every moment that you filmed for your audience. Please, keep them coming our way. 🙂
Newport RI is a beautiful destination. The flower show would be extra-special.
What a delightful solo trip - beautiful flowers at the show, heavenly hotel, lovely strolls around town and along the Cliff Walk, and great shopping! Thank you, as always, for taking us along with you!
I love traveling with you, Linda. That’s the only travel I get. ❤
Since I love gardening, seeing this show was just phenomenal.
Your room is exquisite. Thanks for sharing. .
This is so fun to see!!!!❤
The Williamsburg is exactly the room I would have chosen as well. I could live there forever!
I really enjoyed this video. I'm an 18th century girl stuck in the 21st century. I have never been to Newport thanks to Hurricane Ike. Twice we tried to go and twice the weather had other ideas.

Newport is such a lovely place! The Chanler looks spectacular! So glad you had that special getaway!

The White Horse Tavern is where I got engaged so many years ago..lol. ❤
Your room at the Chanler Inn was so beautiful, that paint color is gorgeous!!! Old silver makes my heart pitter patter 😍
Oh! Thanks for going to Newport! I lived one town to the west for most of my 77 years and how I miss it. Popping across the bridge for coffee and a croissant was no big thing. I was lucky to have a friend with a sailboat moored there and many hours were spent viewing Newport from the water. Alas, that was then and this is now (in Florida).

They totally nailed the Williamsburg room! I’ve stayed at the Williamsburg Inn before and I never wanted to leave! I am putting Newport on my bucket list. What a beautiful place.
Thanks for sharing the beautiful town of Newport! I was there 50 years ago and I’ve always wanted to go back!

Omgoodness. I could live in your hotel room. Gorgeous!!
I know where I want to go next year! So miss the Boston Flower Show. Thank you for the lovely tour of Newport. Have you ever stopped in Wickford, RI. very small old town but fun shops. Have a great day and thank you. so much fun and good ideas.
Yes! Thank you. Wickford will be in a mid-week or next Sunday’s video! I love visiting Wickford whenever I’m in that part of Rhode Island
Thank you for your beautiful videos of places I would otherwise never get to see as a Floridian! You are a gem Linda!
Wow, was that a beautiful video. Thank you so much. The lush landscape and incredible properties were a wonderful treat to see. You are so appreciated.
I wait for your videos on Sunday morning ❤😊

I live in Rhode Island and Newport is beautiful in the Summer. Great place to visit.
You crack me up! I probably would have fixed the sconce shade too. I’m always straightening pictures also. Ha!

I'd certainly like to duplicate but rather far from Virginia.
Thank you Linda for sharing your travels. A beautiful area of our beloved country.
This was so beautiful. Thank you for taking us along 😊
Love the tour o Newport, my son is a graduate of Naval War College, we visited during his graduation. Thanks for sharing.
Linda, thank you for taking us along. I honestly would kill to have that room you stayed in. So beautiful and cozy. That little shop that had all the nautical sweaters was to die for. I would have grabbed one of everything, lol. Can't wait to see what you got. I cannot believe that fly, in your room no less. How often would that happen???? Good grief. Great trip. xoxTXDeb
PS you got me in trouble with the shop link lol.
Wow, Linda, the building, the grounds & displays, breath taking ❤ Your hotel & room were so beautiful. I wouldn't have wanted to leave😊 I love New England, it's so beautiful. Thanks for taking us along.
loved your comment: "Drawn like a moth to a flame!"
The Williamsburg room was a wonderful choice! WOW, simply beautiful. It reminded me that I have window swags tucked away in a similar Jacobean print that I am going to take out to use in our bedroom. It needs a complete overhaul as I have not been able to decide how I wanted to “do it up”! Your video today has certainly given me such inspiration. Thank you, thank you. Everything was so lovely, the hotel, the shops and especially the gardens. What a wonderful trip. I really enjoyed it. Thanks for taking us along!
I noticed those beautiful window swags, too!
Hi Linda - my family & I have visited Newport too, but not when the flower show occurred. Newport reminds us what fine living really is. Thank you sharing your trip...such a joy!!!
As a Rhode Islander all my life, we have many secret location gardens even nicer that the ‘gen pub’ doesn’t know! They are sacred and tranquil😊
Love all your videos brings me so much calm and very relaxing background music choice !
Beautiful video , I always look forward to your sun. Videos so relaxing such beautiful places we are blessed with to explore
This is so perfect! I'm planning a trip to Newport, RI now and I currently live in Richmond, VA about 30 minutes from Williamsburg so I love this so much!
Oh my goodness, I love this hotel and the atmosphere surrounding it! This is what I would give myself as an I love you present. This will be on my to do list, for sure!
One of your nicest videos ever!
DEAR LINDA, WHAT A CHARMING VIDEO, FLOWERS APLENTY AND THE FERNS IN URNS , JUST STUNNING. THE HOTEL WAS SWEET. THANK YOU, BARBIE
When I visit historic places like Newport it just astounds me that these people were so rich and the craftsmen so talented. Nice that the state maintains them though. What a gorgeous place.
Oh my word Linda! I am just flabbergasted ! I had no idea there was so much to do in Rhode Island. I would have loved to visit there. Thanks a mill for taking me there. Next best thing since I won’t be able to go there myself. Cannot wait for the next adventure.

Perfectly edited video! A feast for the eyes and ears. Since I will never get to go there, i enjoyed this more than you know! Thanks for sharing. Love and hugs from Gloria in Mississippi
Such a beautifully decorated room.
Beautiful....you even make a fly look elegant ❤
Beautiful video, Linda. Someday I'll get to Newport! Would love to hear of your encounter at the tavern!!
I love everything about this video!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Linda you are a gem!! Thank you for sharing !! 💖
What a lovely trip, thank you for taking us with you and for sharing the link to the Kiel James Patrick store too! The room was just beautiful..sorry about the drunk fly! Have a great week!
Thank you for watching until the end to see that LOL
I enjoyed every second of this video. Thank you for sharing your time with us.
Thanks for taking us along, Linda. This is my favorite of your travel videos. I will be watching it again. How beautiful are all the varieties of hydrangea! Some day I hope to visit Newport.

Your video was so enjoyable. The weather here is hot and humid. It is so delightful to watch the beautiful places in the privacy in my home. Thank you
Beautiful video! I can’t wait to see the treasures you took home.
How wonderful!!! Thank you. Love Newport
WOW! What a lovely adventure you took all of us on. I’ve been to Newport (Toured The Breakers) and a bit of the town, about 30+ yrs ago. I loved the quaintness of Rhode Island. I’ve never been to this lovely area…stunning. The gardens were beautiful. Loved the room you chose. That color would be lovely in your home. You should have used those bed steps to fix that lampshade, it would have made me cra, cra. lol I think my friends and I should do a girls trip to Newport. I know they’ve never been. TY❤
The drapery in your wonderful Williamsburg room,had the same pattern as two wingback chairs,I had years back,and sold for only $75 a chair! I loved them!
