Black White & Brown

Where we stop and smell the roses for you

Old Stone Orchard

Hungry yet? We are. This month we visited Old Stone Orchard in Little Compton, Rhode Island. A nice little farm that draws families August through November, Old Stone offers not only a wide variety of apples but pumpkins, gourds and eggplant too. Parking is easy and just steps away from the orchard itself. In addition to pick-your-own, they also have a well stocked fruit and vegetable stand so running in is quick and easy for anyone who is on...

Fort Wetherill

While well known for its hotel that could rival Downton Abbey, its newest claim occurred in 2013 when Taylor Swift bought a house there: a pristine white colonial on top...

Charlestown Beach

Have you ever been to a beach in the winter? It’s an odd thing. Eerie even. For a place that’s usually filled with people and families, to see it empty and abandoned can be a shock, even if you are expecting it. It was that shock and emptiness that reminded me of what it’s like the moment you realize you're going to lose someone you love. Some moments, diseases, things, you can do something about, others; not so much. This past fall, I...
