Reply to Ocean State Veterinary Specialists really the only emergency vet hospital in the state? by ihavebigboobiezz

My dog had an injury a few months ago and I took him to Veterinary Urgent Care Center. It’s in North Easton, MA but it was the only place within easily drivable distance that would take him without an appointment since we are new to the PVD area and hadn’t established care for him anywhere yet. They’re walk in only, but you can check in online before or call to see what their wait is. It sucked having to drive so far (about an hour for me) but overall it was a great experience and worth it to get him taken care of. We won’t hesitate to take one of our dogs back there if we need urgent care outside of their vet’s hours.

Reply to Fox Point Air Quality by lightningbolt1987

How can you simultaneously see hazardous levels on an air quality map and not find anything online about it? I’ve been checking regularly the last few weeks and it hasn’t been elevated at all, and there’s definitely no indication of hazardous levels anywhere near here.

Reply to Move to Rhode Island? by ChickenRelevant4046

I’m a Hoosier who moved to RI last year. The cost of living here is outrageous compared to Indiana, but I think Rhode Island makes up for it. The beaches here are amazing, I went several times this summer. I live in Providence and it’s cooler than any city in Indiana. Providence has a larger city feel while being small enough to walk to almost any point in the city within 30-45 minutes. My favorite thing though, and I think the biggest difference from Indiana, is how quickly and easily I can get to a lot of cool places. I’ve taken the train to Boston a few times and to NYC. I’ve driven to Cape Cod for a short trip, and we’re also a weekend trip away from the Berkshires, the White Mountains, the coast of Maine, etc. I love that driving 3-6 hours here can get me to some place really cool, while 3-6 hours from most points in Indiana can pretty much just get you to another part of Indiana. There are just a ton of cool things in this area.
