New England B.S. Thread

Used to fly over block island almost everyday... never landed to go check it out though... maybe this summer! Gf would enjoy a day trip. From one rock in the middle of the ocean, to another rock in the middle of the ocean.

 

How expensive is that restaurant? We just went to the zoo a few weeks ago but seeing how much the zoo was I was afraid to walk into the restaurant

So isn't almost any place south of Concord NH

In my hood. I grew up 1/4 mile away from there. As a matter of fact your old camper is sitting there. You'll be right down the street from it. I only work down a little ways away too

 

Alright, what's your favorite Independence Day film?

 

I agree, Southwick is really expensive! We have passes we got for Christmas so we'll all go later in the Summer.

We have the annual family pass for Capron so we can go whenever we want. It's small, but there's a lot of stuff for the boys to do.

 

All good flicks, but not sure how some of those qualify as Independence Day films... Never associated them with the 4th of July except for the obvious ones.

 

Sandlot no question

 

you did not shoot that green shit at me!

 

Independence day- set around the 4th of July
Gettysburg- battle occurred around the 4th of July
Live Free or Die Hard- set around the 4th of July
The Sandlot- their one 'night game' per year is the 4th of July
The Patriot- 'Murica

 

Terminator 2: Judgment Day

 

Was that set around the 4th? It's been so long since I've seen it that I don't remember.

 

It was just the wife and I when we went and the restaurant was on the expensive side for what it is. It's not earth shattering food by any means. There was a cool screened in section we sit in that was on the zoo side so you could see a bunch of animals.

I guess I'm not a good gauge on expensive for activities like the zoo since I don't have any kids and we are living that DINK life.

 

Independence Day definitely. Sandlot is one of my favorite movies but I relate that more to just a Summer movie.

 

It came out July 3, 1991..close enough

 

Well it cost me over $60 just to walk into the Zoo on Mothers day. Mom's were 1/2 price, 2 Mom's and 2 kids plus me and I was the only full price person. You can gauge it from there

 

Capron Park is nice. Very small but nice.

 

Yeah that's a good amount to go to the zoo!

 

It was hot that day too so of course everyone wanted ice cream plus our drinks. No way I was going to try that restaurant

 

They do AAA discounts if you have it.

 

Uhhh, Jaws!

 

I do. That was with every discount I could get
