Fort Adams in Newport, RI

On July 3, I took a tour of the amazing, 300 year old Fort Adams in Newport, Rhode Island!  It is also the biggest fort in North America.  (pretty sure) By the way, it gave me a ton of inspiration for future Minecraft projects on my server.  Anyways, Fort Adams is amazing!  Here are some pictures.













 
The last picture is from tunnels that the guards used to use to listen underground for the enemy.  There was no way you could go over the fort and into it without getting slaughtered.  So what they did was they would dig tunnels underground.  Then they would blow up part of the wall of a fort.  That was why these tunnels were built.  The guards listened for anyone digging underneath.  (pretty cool isn't it) More architecture is coming.  Stay Tuned!

Some Pics of Newport, RI

These following pictures are from Today (July 3, 2011) in Newport, Rhode Island.  They include just random houses and some famous New England mansions, and were taken by me.  (some are NOT architecture photos)










There is more to come!  (Including Fort Adams in Newport :D)

Done...With Driving!

It has been 3 days since I posted an update that late Tuesday night.  I'm finally off the road after 3 days of driving!  We are in Rhode Island.  I took a lot of pictures on the road of big cities and other landmarks.  (including Indianapolis, Colombus, New York City, and others) But I won't be showing them because they are very low quality.  It is kind of hard to take a good picture on the highway!  Although, I will be showing tons of pics from here in the New England area.
