FI Brick at Napatree Point, RI
Friday November 23: Occasionally I monitor sites off Island as I did this day while visiting Napatree Point in Westerly, RI. I figure it is a good practice as I can note similarities in different areas. Here there is a clear view of eastern Fishers Island.
My walk starts off with thankfulness left over from the holiday. It appears our beaches and community sustained comparatively minor damages. Down the road and a few beaches over Misquamicut tells a different story. I note that like our own historic Fort Wright area there are gun emplacements here as well. I like the railings installed for the visitors.
The commercial fishing debris is very evident here whereas our southerly beaches collected a smaller version. I was gifted too, for my monitoring endeavors. Scouring Fishers Island for a very certain treasure after Hurricane “Sandy” I always came up empty. But here at Napatree beach I laugh as I look in the surf and spot a brick . . . Dig the “FI”on it!!
