    Upon arrival, Kevin, the current owner, picked us up at the dock and brought us by boat to the lighthouse.

    Good. Had a good time looking at the old buildings and seeing the tools that they used.read more

    Ready for an adventure kiddies? Then come to Fall River and see the aging ruins of the Old Fall…read moreRiver Ice House. But please, be discreet. Signs around the entryway state that fishing, boating, swimming and camping are strictly prohibited. But ever since I was a child I always wondered what the old Medieval looking ruin had to offer the not so faint of heart. Now as an adult literalist, I interpret the absence of a no trespassing order as something akin to an invitation. One side of the structure can be seen on the right while driving north on Route 24 coming from 195. Take exit 5 and follow Eastern Avenue then take a left onto New Boston Road. At the end, turn left onto Willow Street which turns into Ruth Street (over the freeway) and then Meridian Street (in a very short distance). Park on Hannah Street or Bergeron Street and then walk back toward whence you drove and go around the left of the fence across the road. What awaits you on the other side is a lonesome path long neglected over time. Weeds and trees flourish between cracks in the crumbling asphalt. Once past the noise from the street, an eerie quiet sets in. A short walk will lead you to the northern shores of the pond. Continue along and watch for the ruins on the right. Inside you will find excellent photo opportunities and a remarkable example of structural decay and a forest gradually reclaiming lost ground. Vines ensnare the surrounding trees and creep alongside the walls of the massive building. The colossal inner chambers are full of trees and enormous stones that have given way to time. Interesting exterior brickwork nestled among stones can be seen as one moves along the southern edge of the building closer to the shore. One wall bears the scar of what may have been a large lightning strike. Most of the walls have soaring vacancies in the stonework that may have once held windows or doors. Sadly, there is some graffiti, but it's a minor distraction in such an exciting place. After you've had your fill of the ruins, continue along the path and feel the eyes of the forest upon you. Low walls of stone accompany you throughout most of your journey and it would be difficult to get lost. Bear left when the path splits about a half mile after you've gone over the causeway (it can be difficult to discern) and you will eventually return to Meridian Street. Do NOT forget your camera!

    This is one of those places, as I'm sure others have, that I've driven by dozens of times without…read moremuch of a second thought. But after this winter, I wanted to get out and decided to check them out. First, as a side note, don't use 'Battleship Cove' as your GPS destination; otherwise, the GPS will tell you it's on the Braga Bridge/195. There was some overnight scout pack or something when I went, as a bunch of people/kids were getting out when I got there. There was nobody to show my pre-paid ticket to, so I just went in; it was just chaos. As far as the attraction goes, it's amazing how big and how small it is at the same time. Small in the sense that I clocked my head a couple times, and to contort a little bit to get through doorways and hallways a few times, and I'm only 5'6. I can only imagine how enlisted people did it. Big in the sense that you don't realize how far down it goes and how much they cram into what is a relatively small vessel. It's a lot of interesting information and a fun time exploring the ships. And its relatively cheap too. In the summer, I can imagine it getting really hot in the vessel so I would say that Spring or Fall is probably the best option.

    I love walking or running at Battleship Cove. Currently, there is a lot of construction going on…read moredown there, but the intentions are to make it more pedestrian friendly and I am excited to see when it's finished. Despite the construction, there's still a ton of safe spaces to walk or run. I usually run at sunrise or sunset, as the sunsets over the bridge and it's beautiful. Lots of people walk their dogs, so it's dog friendly as well. I highly recommend checking out Battleship Cove even for just a peaceful walk on the boardwalk.

There's a lot of interesting and good information, and I liked the people. But.... The first half of the tour is in an old mini bus. The bus has tiny windows, like 4" square, and no air circulation. No fans. No air conditioning. Today was nearly 90 out by 10 am, when our tour started, and temperatures inside the bus got so hot that stepping out felt cool! You don't travel far, and then they stop for 10 minutes to talk about what's out the window. It's brutal. Ironically, the travel distances are so slim most people could walk it. But, just sitting on the bus in the heat? Yuck. The second half is in an old shed where you learn about harvesting. Again, it could be interesting, but it's a good 10° hotter, even with the fans going, and it makes it hard to focus. Or even listen. Better weather would have helped. But, we had an old lady in our tour group nearly pass out, and the guide indicated that that was not uncommon. Heck, complimentary water would be nice. Waters are a dollar. The tour is fifteen. It's all cash only.
