South Kingstown, Rhode Island has its own special corner of the world. From the outside looking in, it may seem like a stereotypical small American town, but beneath the surface it is so much.
To my fellow townies: here is an article that will allow you to appreciate everything that surrounds you
A is for (Green Line) Apothecary
It may be new to town, but it's a great addition and it makes you feel like you're back in the 1950's.
B is for Brickley's Ice Cream
Enough said.
C is for (South County) Commons
Oh, the memories. If you don't remember wandering around the commons on Friday nights, it's probably because you blocked it out of your mind.
D is for Dennis Moffitt Painting wall
It changes with the seasons and holidays, and you're always excited to see what will show up next.
E is for El Fuego Mexican Grill
It's all about authenticity...and Taco Tuesday.
F is for Fireworks at OMF
You may not be able to find a place to sit unless you get there hours early, but this Fourth of July celebration definitely brings the town together.

It's just about as far out as you can get before you're not in SK anymore.

Because anything past the tower just isn't worth the trek.

It's the perfect place to go if you don't want to be surrounded by the beach crowd, and the restaurant has some of the best seafood around!

We may have to go past the tower to find an airport, but at least we don't have to travel far to hop on a train.

Twice a year, the ladies of SK happily drink wine and blow all of their money on small business shopping.

Got beer?

Ticket Tuesday!

You can get the best breakfast around for under five dollars.

This is definitely a pretty cool aspect of our little corner of the world, and lots of fun, too!
