Lived on turnpike ave right down the road from the high school. Love jamestown would like to live down there again but the cost of living is a tad higher than here in NH. Still have family on the island. Still use the jamestown ferry once in awhile in portland Me, it's now a resturant, Dimillos.

Used to go past there to work every day in Bristol.
Yeah, J'town is nice, but if you move off the island, you could never afford to move back again.
I haven't been on the ferry since .... '69 I guess. It sounds like I need a trip to Portland.
Newport Bridge is now EZ=Pass. 83 cents for locals, 2 bucks for you furriners. Still way too expensive...

Yea the old ferry doesnt move anymore but they serve a reasonable meal. I remember the first time I went on it I told my wife as soon as I stepped aboard that I had been on this boat before and sure enough walking towards the dinning area there was a picture of the boat telling its history as one of the two Jamestown ferrys.

And ditto with moving off the island it's a tad bit expensive to move back.
