Madison Dennis

I have been traveling to Block Island every year since I was born. It has become one of my favorite places and is a place I look forward to visiting every year with my family to create new memories. This is a travel guide that lists all my favorite activities and places to eat every year on Block Island.

How to get there:

Madison Dennis

Since there is no way to get on the island without flying in the air or traveling from a boat, your options are very limited.

These options include:

- Rent a boat or buy a boat

- Ride the speed ferry or ride the traditional ferry (Speed Ferry - 30 minutes/Slow Ferry - 1 hour)

- Take a flight (10-15 minutes)

Where to Stay:

There are many activities to do and beaches to enjoy on the island, including:

- Mansion Beach

- Clay Head Beach

- The Bluffs

- Shopping in town to get the best souvenirs to take home and to buy the cutest island clothes.

- Fishing

- Riding bikes around the island (7 miles long)

- Mopeds

- Many places to hike around the island

Where to eat:

There are many different locations to eat the freshest food on the island. Four of my favorite places include:

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
