I was going to suggest that the Providence footage was post war because the person seemed to be taking note of unique places in the city with the trolleys. There was also a special emphasis on the "UER" logo. Trolleys were formally abandoned in 1948, and the trolleybus system followed in 1955.
I came to providence in the 90s. what the hell happened to the trollies? I live in Florida now, and in my opinion, Rhode Island is the best state to retire and have clarity of mind, especially since the fall looks so beautiful. God, I miss Providence.
when the X game happened, I was probably the only one that rollerblade through that tunnel and went down that hill next to the tunnel. Hit the stop sign but I'm good.
Amazing footage. Does anybody know what this power plant building is at 10:00? Lincoln power station? I would love to see this scene from the same angle today.
The ABCs of Salvation, or how to be right with God, and know you're going to Heaven: A-dmit that you're a sinner, and need a Savior. As it is written: There is none righteous, no, not one. Romans 3:10 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23 B-elieve that Jesus Christ died paying the penalty for your sins, and rose from the grave. He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross. 1 Peter 2:24 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures... 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 C-all on the Lord Jesus Christ to save you, and trust only in Him for your salvation. If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9 For whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10:13 The moment you "believe," or, put your trust in what Jesus has done for you, God saves you and your eternal destiny in Heaven is assured. You go from spiritual death to eternal life the moment you believe. Jesus said it this way: Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life. John 5:24😀
