Because I am a crazy person, I kayaked to yet another island full of abandoned stuff. In this case, it was the remains of some fortifications on Dutch Island in Rhode Island - it's a publicly accessible site if you don't mind crossing the open water for a little bit.

This was once used for coastal defense, so the bunkers mostly held big-ass guns that have long since been removed and melted down to make, most likely, other guns.

Also, a lighthouse with a dead hawk impaled on the spire! I'm guessing it misjudged a dive and killed itself.

The rest are on my Flickr.

Very cool shots. After looking around the area from your last set on Maps, I was really hoping you'd go here. I love old coastal gun emplacements and fortifications like this.

Wow! That set made my scrotum all tingly 'n' shit...
