We used to use Anderson's Ski and Dive in EG. They always had a good selection and helpful staff, they understand the difference between "I ski Wachusett a few times a year" and more serious stuff. Website sucks but give them a call.

I like everyone at Pratt Family Dentistry in East Greenwich. They're friendly and gentle and do good work, but also accept that most patients don't care about teeth nearly as much as they do, and will work with you to find good solutions within what you're willing to do and pay.
A little pricey and out of network for most insurance, they deal with all that billing complexity though and you just pay the difference, which normally isn't too bad.

Quonset is a great place to practice driving, snow or otherwise. Especially on the weekends. It's mostly empty, with lots of roads and parking lots to play around in.

I'm not sure the conversion to edibles, but I walked into a Michigan shop with $300 to stock up, ordered a bunch of stuff, and it was $60.

RI is a bit higher than MA. Meanwhile Michigan is like 80% less than either, if you don't mind crossing a few state lines.

It's really just caution and slow down. Flashing your lights is very appropriate for an object in the road, a pedestrian where there's no shoulder, etc.

Generally the business hosting the charger pays for the electricity. Sometimes the car owner pays, like with most chargepoints.

They're still several times more efficient than gas cars, even if the electricity is 100% fossil fuel. A modern natural gas plant is pretty efficient and very low in pollution other than CO2. And the power grid will continue to improve.
Fast chargers are expensive, they charge about what it would cost to drive a small gas car. But L2 and L1 trickle chargers are just an AC hookup, the only expense is the electricity, and for an hour or two at the library you're talking maybe $1-2.

Good luck parking in the city.

Drive to New Haven or Stamford, park there, and take the commuter to Grand Central. Parking is $10/day, and the train is $11 from Stamford and about $14 from New Haven. Runs every 15-30 minutes so you don't need to plan exactly, just show up.
Amtrak is a pleasant ride but expensive AF and not much faster than driving.

FYI, when everyone reports your spam texts, you get on lists of spammers and automatically blocked, making it difficult or impossible to contact people for legitimate purposes.

My FiOS has literally never been down since I got it maybe a decade ago. Tree falls on the lines and everything looks destroyed, start up the generator and the internet is working great. Customer service I don't know, I've never had a problem.

The land is probably worth $180k. Removing the existing structure would cost $10k, so $170k seems fair.
