Woonsocket, huh? Guess who lives in Woonsocket, right up the road from the Museum of Work and Culture? ME! You probably parked in that circular parking lot, near downtown… remember that waterfall nearby (Woonsocket Falls)? If you go up that road (South Main Street), I live at the very end. Too funny! Woonsocket gets a bad rap, but I was born there and choose to live there. My grandparents/parents grew up just like described in the museum.
Ri-Ra is great (great pick up place), but I thought you got “bangers and mash” at Murphy’s in Providence. I guessed wrong!

Hey, long time no hear. We had a great time, but it was all too short. Davey enjoyed his lobster but of course it wasn’t nearly as hearty as one would hope. I had some terrific blackened swordfish. Yum. We went to The Dark Lady and Club Hell for the bars, Museum of Work and Culture (in Woonsocket) and The Culinary Archives and Museum of Johnson and Wales for the museums. And Ri-Ra, Big Fish and the Inn at Johnson and Wales for the restaurants.

Glad to hear you had a good time in my great state of Rhode Island!
Drop me a line if you want, let me know the bars/restaurants/museums you visited. How was the lobster?
