Reply to Are we still flashing the brights? by SqueakieDeekie
I moved to Norway from Rhode Island and the first couple times someone flashed their high beams at me I thought it was because there was a cop ahead. But nope, it was a moose 😄

Reply to I am interested in learning about the history of Aquidneck Island. Can you recommend me any in depth (the deeper, the better) articles, books, documentaries, YouTube channels, museums, etc on this subject? Thank you in advance. by PinkSwallowLove
I was playing the video game Uncharted 4 & learned that Aquidneck Island has a history with pirates! They mentioned specifically Thomas Tew in the game. So of course I had to start looking it up online. I came across this article and found it really interesting!
But I will echo what others say and talk to librarians and even reach out to the Newport Historical Society. I would have done this myself but I don't live in the US anymore. I'd love to hear anything you find out!
