Moved to RI a year ago and have yet to check out Big River MGMT Area or Sachuest Point – so many gems tucked away around this little state. I look forward to exploring now!

Fantastic job on that place! I also made sure to get my Dels fix. 🙂

I was also a project manager in 1997 responsible for tearing up the old Navy runways at Ninigret to restore them to native sand plain grasslands—complete with about 4 miles of trails. While we now live in western Massachusetts, we return to “Rhody” every few months; my wife is a native and apparently all Rhode Island natives return regularly for their “coffee milk” fix (I return for fresh steamed Quahogs, Westerly Italian Soupy, and Coddington Brewery growler refill!). Safe travels, amigo!
