Good stuff here. It makes me glad I don't live in Rhody. It also does remind me of one ROW that I know of here in MA. It's a tiny lil path with greenery on both sides and a canopy over the top. The property owners on either side seem to have encourage the growth of plants as much as possible. One of them even extended his/her small stone property border across the front of the entrance. You have to now step over these stones to get to the ROW. Driving by, it doesn't look like ROW at all, rather a path to someone's back yard. The first time I went looking for this place I must have walked a 1/2 mile stretch of road a dozen times. This is not fun in the summer heat in neoprene! Considering I knew of the place, I don't see how someone not actively looking for the ROW would ever find it.
