Battle of Rhode Island Site

The Battle of Rhode Island Site is the partially preserved location of the Battle of Rhode Island, fought August 29, 1778 during the American Revolutionary War. The battle took place in the town of Portsmouth, Rhode Island, located on Aquidneck Island north of Newport, and was the only major action of the war that took place in Rhode Island. It was also significant as the only battle of the war in which an entirely segregated unit of African-American soldiers fought. At the time of the action, the 1st Rhode Island Regiment consisted of companies of locally recruited African Americans and Native Americans with white officers. The two main areas associated with the battle were designated a National Historic Landmark in 1974

I dnt think my photos do the park justice, not sure if it just wasn't good light or me filling in time before heading to the Ednodontic Dental Doctor and my mind not really being on taking photos as much as it should have been
Let me admit I generally like to think I have a high threshold for pain, but when it comes to dentists I am a wreck, and on that day I was just going for an assesment so logically i know I shouldn't have bene stressed, but ohh I was and thats my excuse for the photos I am sharing .

Oh man, dentist is the worst of the visits we can ever do. Everyone is brave until that day haha
Beautiful shots, I love the fall orange colors you get on this season
thanks and yeah I think so many of us fear dentists
This looks like a beautiful site. I'm hoping to get my wife to Rhode Island one day. I remember visiting Newport as a kid and I have always wanted to get back there.
there are so many beautiful spots in Rhode Island I would love to make more trips there,
Indeed!
The pictures speak volumes

What a great park, and with a lot of interesting history. It's hard to conceive just how violent that battle must have been, it was up close and personal unlike today where you bomb them or shoot them with a sniper one mile away.
Beautiful pictures, I know what you mean that the images just don't do justice to the real place. Glad the root canal went well, I understand you're trepidation with the dentist as well!
times sure have changed, when I visited this spot just came across it by chance, I thought such a beautiful spot never imagines its history
Yikes three visits to oral surgeon... I can see how that would make your hands a little shaky on the photos 😆 interesting site. I had no idea there was a Battle of Rhode Island
luckily apart from needing to get a crown done hopefully fished with dentists for a few months
I like your photos, even with the dentist effect 😀
Enjoy your weekend
Thanks kindly your support is appreciated
Have a great day
