Yet another summer has rolled around which means it’s time to go antiquing! And I don’t mean the stuffy sort of antiquing one might expect from Rhode Island. I am not in the market for a 15th century chair or some fine china I’m afraid to breathe on. I do have enough spare change for… Continue reading Stillwater Antique Mall – Greenville Rhode Island
I would like to think I know a little bit more about New England history having done all these travels but that’s not to say I am not still routinely surprised or deeply disturbed. Nine Men’s Misery was on of those delightful WTF moments. It was something I had never heard of and neither had… Continue reading Nine Men’s Misery – Cumberland Rhode Island
Believe it or not we didn’t go to Foster Rhode Island to go cemetery hopping but when in Rome… Historic Cemetery #45 (Also called the Hopkin’s Mills Lot) The first cemetery we came across was adjacent to the Ramshead Trail we wanted to walk down and just a stone’s throw away from a purportedly haunted… Continue reading Historic Cemeteries 45, 27, & 26 Foster Rhode Island

Mercy Brown was… Continue reading Mercy Brown “Vampire” Grave – Exeter Rhode Island
After escaping the velociraptors in the Enchanted Forest we continued our adventuring to yet another abandoned amusement park in Rhode Island. This one was more familiar to my travel companion as he was here in the mid 1990’s before it was abandoned making happy childhood memories. Curranty it’s been transformed into a regular park. Most… Continue reading Rocky Point Abandoned Amusement Park Warwick RI
Last week’s adventures had a theme – abandoned theme parks! And we started with this one which was… an adventure. It always is. It was another FaceBook suggestion which I have found to be a total coin toss when it comes to being worth it. I thought this was the place with the abandoned fairy… Continue reading The Enchanted Forest Abandoned Amusement Park Hope Valley RI
