Cape Cod snow bound! I have serious cabin fever! This rain barley made a dent!!!! Clamming season can't get here fast enough for me!0

Yes, it has been a pretty rough winter. But, it has finally ended! I haven't gone clamming since I was very young. It was a fun time. Enjoy!0

I agree CT is close enough. I would love to move back one day. I only lived there for a year, but I enjoyed the privacy and the peace.

Why do you hate it? Granted opportunities are lacking and cost of living is through the roof. But RI is beautiful. There is still so much I would like to explore.0 -

You don't want to move back if you're worried about cost of living lol it's just as high if not worse here

This is true. But I feel some places are worth paying just a bit more for. Then again, it is probably much more developed than I remember. It may have lost the very thing I loved about it. I lived in Oneco.0 -
Never been. Down in Cheshire. Who knows it may still be your idyllic country get away don't want to dash your CT dreams lol btw it's kind of funny you want to move back to CT when everyone in CT is always talking about going to RI!! 0

Maybe I will take a day trip to the old neighborhood and see how it looks. Never been to Cheshire. It just sounds expensive
Other than where I lived I have only been to Putnam and Hartford. Is that so? What is it that RI has to offer that draws you fine people here?0 -
MA here, right at the CT/RI/MA border....kinda.0
-
NY here0
-
I live on a road which is on a island , does that count? 0
-
Mass...right across CT border, close to RI...All seems the same to me0
-
I'm from MA too, I live in the Metro West area0
-
Boston here. Just bought a house in Westwood, though. Already miss the city and ready to move again 0

Of all the places I went this winter, Somerville was the worst. They just did an extremely poor job dealing with the snow. I feel for you. Union Square was once my home.

Lol Cheshire is expensive.:some of the higher taxes in the state (gross!) But excellent schools! Honestly, I don't know what draws people to RI...other that. The fact the beaches supposedly have waves up there lol! If you ever come back down, you'll have to update me if your town is what you remember it to be
CT is so built up nowadays! 0 -

Ah, NY! Thank you for stopping in. I have been a few times for work. No offense, but it is not my favorite place. The city is far too congested. I loved Troy though, beautiful area.0 -

@sbetts2229 I agree, it's all a hop, skip and a jump away!
@christians_mom Thank you for checking in. It is nice to see more locals coming together!
@hardcorep0rk more power to you! I dislike the cities. I love personal space and peace and quiet. I work in Boston often. No sooner do I get there I am ready to get out of there. I hope you get used to the new area.
@Tonydevolani_ Yes, yes it is. When I joined the military, everywhere I went for a duty station, this is how they remembered RI was actually a state. Or I got "Isn't Rhode Island a part of New York?"0 -

Taxes are brutal, especially in well developed and well maintained areas. But to be honest, if the schools are excellent then it must be worth every penny. Not too often you hear of schools being excellent! Yes, we do infact have waves, unfortunately the upper bay is a great collection point for all of the ocean trash and the outer bay is constantly overrun by red tide lol. I am sure I will be in CT over the summer when I am looking for new places to hike. I enjoy getting away for a day trip through the woods or in the mountains. I will certainly keep you updated and if you make your way here to RI you will have to keep me updated on what you think of the place

You loved Troy? That is the armpit of NY and just a hole in the heroin highway. I'm shocked.justjack18 wrote: »NY here

Maybe I didn't spend enough time there. I spent 2 days working on an account at a private school. I didn't get to explore much. Maybe more time out and about would have revealed a much different view.
