Today was an awesome day for me. I had a meeting for a grad program that went well so I decided to play hooky the rest of the day and take a road trip. The plan was to head north for lunch in Mystic before hunting down some old roads in Rhode Island, you know just putsing around.
Would you ever stop at a place that looks like this?
Well you would if you knew they had the best fried clams in the world! Seriously, the best you will ever eat. They have been featured on the Food Network and the Travel Channel and for good reason.
Want a bite? You can't have one, mine all mine.
Anyway, once lunch was done I strolled on over to some backroads in Rhode Island. Found some neat trails. I didn't take a lot of pics because I got caught up enjoying the scenery. Here is a couple that don't do this area justice at all.
Then I continued onto an area a little farther northwest and stopped at a cemetery to poke around. I love doing this as you never know just who you will meet.
Today, I met Lt. Rice. He had an interesting story. I tried looking him up online but I keep getting a man I think was his father. I still want to look into it a little more.
The I saw these headstones laying on the rock wall. They must have fallen a while back and nobody knew where the belonged. I couldn't read anything on them as they were pretty weathered.
There is more to the story but I don't have any pics.
