Apparently I need to get back over to the East Coast. Stuff that dreams are made of.








I hate it, but at the same time the stories behind Old Money are just crazy to think about.

I was thinking to myself drat that place looks familiar I think I have been there as a kid, scroll down and yup Mansions of Newport RI. Pictures really don't capture just how massive those mansions are. One of them has a 2 story kids playhouse that is probably 800-1000 sq/ft.

edit: pictures also don't show how every room is basically roped off so you get crowds of people trying to poke their heads in a doorway.
