    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!

    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!

    It is a small state. I'm not from Rhode Island...but I grew up drinking coffee milk...does that count for anything?
    When I went to Providence, I bought a bunch of coffee milk to take home with me. My son freaking loves it.

    Coffee milk appears to be the staple for New England. It is quite delicious!

    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.

    I agree, sir. It has been a rough one for sure. Ready to get out and enjoy some warm air. It's on it's way!

    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.

    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?
