Cow cove

[Mr. Sandman]

First settlers landed and swam to shore bringing with them the island's first cows who where pushed off the boats and forced ashore.

I bet it was kind of fun pushing cows off a boat!

Yes! I thought this was interesting. I read about this in the new issue of edible rhody, there was a big RI dairy aricle. It said it was 1632 , when they first did this.

There is a placard embedded into one of the nearby rocks were the road ends that talks about this.
