Walking around Warren

DJ-S1

Took a day off this week and wandered around Warren, RI. Thought I'd post a few shots and see what you think.

Started off by Frerich's Farm and watched the ducks for a bit...




Then I drove into town and started wandering towards Water St. This war memorial was in a small park and commemorates those who served in every war since the Revolutionary War. I noticed that the only Warren resident to actually be killed in the Revolutionary War was named Cole, and in the Civil War 2 of the 8 or so killed from Warren were also named Cole. There was nobody else from Warren with the last name Cole that served in any future war; I guess they did their part already!

On the way to Water Street there are lots of historic homes. Here's one from 1760. I love the uneven walls and windows, gives it character.



Now at Water St., this is one of the houses across the river in Barrington.



Water St. has lots of antique shops, a few restaurants, and surprisingly 3 or 4 photography studios. This was my favorite studio...



...and this was my favorite doorway.

Small towns have small firehouses.



On the bridge over the river, this reed looked cool making waves in the current. Don't think I captured it, but its not bad.



So that's my 2 hour tour. Tons more there, so maybe I'll do it again sometime. Maybe I'll wait for spring, though!

Hiya DJ!
I was looking at the photos one by one, they are very sharp and I really enjoyed them. Then I came to the last photo
I think it is very aesthetic, and it really got my attention!
Thanks for sharing!

You captured it. The reed in the water and the doorway are top notch.
