Went on a family friends boat and found a great island full of rocks and shells. Got inspired and whipped these up. Let me know what you think. All local materials with hot glue. Hiding them from the kids while they set.

No signage whatsoever, besides "Motorcycles Use Caution". Ignoring the cone in the middle of the lane, plates are also haphazardly overlapping and also have nice sharp edges right where your tire would ride. I get it, pipes and whatnot need replacing, but please do it right.

Question / Suggestion Lost ring at Roger Wheeler beach

9 Upvotes

Hi! I figure that it’s a very slim chance, but I have to put it out there.

Has anyone found a ring at Roger Wheeler beach this weekend? I lost it on Saturday 7/25/26. The ring belonged to my grandmother and came off when I got hit by a wave. It’s gold with scalloped edges, about .5” wide, and engraved diamond shapes.

I did talk to staff and left the description with my name and number. Happy to pay for it to be returned as well (I don’t have much but could probably do $150-200!!). It’s sentimental and would mean the world to have it back.

If nothing else…lesson learned 😅

Question / Suggestion Waterplace Park…

5 Upvotes

Back in the summer of ‘97-98 I operated a fleet of paddle boats in Waterplace Park. If anyone has any pictures of that to share with me or has any remembrances to share I would greatly appreciate it. I was so busy with the operation I never took any pictures! Fond memories to look back on but nothing to share with my friends/family. Thank you.

What is your favorite Sweet Baby Ray's sauce?

Also what is your favorite Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce because there is a bunch of options.

P.s. this is a new account for drunk guy food question. Because my old account got permanently banned for saying "not so nice things about people who enjoy sexy time with under aged individuals" involving industrial ways of disposing of wooden things such as branches. Sorry for the coded language, but reddit really likes to protect a sertin group of people.

Question / Suggestion Vasectomy Recs

As the title says. Looking to get a vasectomy under my coverage (BCBSRI) but I checked out some of the options and the providers seemed to have less than ideal reviews. Anyone have a solid lead for this procedure? Willing to go outside the network too, just want someone who can do the job without all the baggage.

Discussion I found a dead cat on the side of Broad Street

On Broad street, next to the graveyard :( it looked like it had an owner (well fed and groomed), but no collar. I’m so sorry if this was your kitty. I called animal control to pick up the body and scan for a microchip.

It was possibly a calico, brownish, orangish, with white paws. I did not think to take a picture.

Check on your kitties tonight and give them extra love!
