Rhode Island has some really pretty towns, but I don’t think they eat there.
John and I drove through parts of Rhode Island we’ve never seen before on our way to and from Providence this afternoon. We fell in love with Bristol and Barrington (those two towns just rose to the top of where we think we want to live) and, in an entirely different (much more rural and remote) way, with Little Compton. The main problem we foresee with Little Compton (assuming we could work from home and/or a nearby storefront) is finding where to buy groceries. We didn’t see a single grocery store in that town or the one just north of it. There were a couple of very small markets (one seasonal and one that seemed to only carry milk and bread), but that was it. Where do these people buy food?
