I was always impressed by the driveway. Once I looked inside. Very pristine I would say. I have read this article and articles relating to Julian Abele, one of the architects. I see the design influence now!Disconiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08698903424912212507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6170852285107502075.post-25343774930687131342022-01-26T05:59:49.313-08:002022-01-26T05:59:49.313-08:00I have read your article; it is very informative a...I have read your article; it is very informative and helpful for me.

Note how many of the rooms do not line up with the exterior pilaster bays. The small details are memorable as well: the locking cane stand and hidden phone.

The Old Guard - downsized as it may be - is still mostly Republican. I know of a few (Like Sheldon Whitehouse and Lincoln Chafee, not to mention some Adams family relations I've met ) who have gone over to the other side but most rich Democrats on the East Coast are from new money. It is still very non-u to be a Democrat at Bailey's Beach, I assure you (although Sheldon Whitehouse is tolerated there!).
