I live in Scituate, RI, too, but I stay as far away from the art festival as I can. I used to go when my SO, who is a watercolor painter, used to exhibit and sell her art there, but "we don't do dat no mo". Instead, I headed out on my '16 Stone into eastern CT, great motorcycling routes, lots of fall colors, little car traffic. My left arm got sore from waving at other motorcyclists along the route.
