The 12s make Newport!
In Response To: Can't wait till Wed. ()

I lived there for years. I worked for a bit for Yves-Marie Tanton whose office is in the Post Office building with a spectacular view over the harbor. (Surprised we got any work done, especially in summer when the girls were in summer uniform on the street below.) Every afternoon, the 12s would come in from whatever they had been doing and cruise around the harbor . . . never fewer than 4 or 5 of them, and all the golden oldies -- Gleam, Northern Light, Weatherly, American Eagle, Intrepid, Heritage, and on and on . . . Never tired of it.
