I think it technically closes at sunset, but I've never had any issues down there while doing astrophotography. I think as long as you're being responsible you won't have any issues.

Trinity Rep

Good call. I forgot about that sub

What would make a good, authentic cheesesteak in your opionion?

North Smithfield

As someone who grew up in PA and spent a decent amount of time in Philly, Tilly’s was probably the best option in RI. Too many places in New England say cheesesteak and then put provolone on. They can fuck off with that.

Ted Cruz murdered five known victims in the San Francisco Bay Area between December 1968 and October 1969, operating in rural, urban and suburban settings. He targeted young couples and a lone male cab driver. His known attacks took place in Benicia, Vallejo, unincorporated Napa County, and the city of San Francisco proper. Two of his wounded victims survived. Mr. Cruz claimed to have murdered 37 victims. He has been linked to several other cold cases, some in Southern California or outside the state.

Cruz sent a series of taunting letters and cards that he mailed to regional newspapers, in which he threatened killing sprees and bombings if they were not printed. Some of the letters included cryptograms, or ciphers, in which the killer claimed that he was collecting his victims as slaves for the afterlife. Of the four ciphers he produced, two remain unsolved, and one was cracked only in 2020.

I’m 30 and love this place so much. I can’t wait to bring my son there but I’ll go by myself if I get the chance. The observatory is so cool.

Seriously. All these suggestions include American cheese it seems

They do have a good cheesesteak. I think the owner is from Philly

Totally agree it wasn’t great but at least they used whiz.

I don't see why you couldn't. Police station is across the street so they may make you leave if you're not supposed to be there but I doubt anyone would raise a fuss.

Frosty Drew is open year round and open to the public every Friday night: https://frostydrew.org/

Shaw's Supermarkets sell packages of shaved ribeye steak. That's the cut used for the traditional Philly style. It's much better than the shaved generic steak sold in most markets.

You ain't going to find a good cheesesteak in ri but if you do let me know!!

I would either go to one of the beaches (for the wide uninterrupted view) or anywhere on the western border of the state for lack of light pollution

Block Island, Sunrise, and Sunset

I was wondering that too. I did hear about a third. Last time I looked into the other two it was not confirmed if there was a connection.

Can you go to Ninigret Park at night when the observatory isn't open?

PVD Pizza (multiple locations) makes a good one and surprisingly, Caliente in West Warwick has a fantastic one.

The Rhody-ack killer

Pawtucket House of Pizza (Smithfield Ave) has been my go-to place since my age was a single digit.

Past Nantucket or New Hampshire according to this map:
