Life Lessons from the Jukebox #26 - The Streak
“They do indeed call it the streak, but the cops just call it indecent exposure.”—Ray Stevens

Planted for The Sprite and Highlander

Trustom Pond National Wildlife Refuge
South Kingstown, RI

Parental note: Please be advised that this stamp image is representative of the theme of the song "The Streak". The image is quite tasteful and quite cute, and I would not have any problem at all with my own children (ages 8, 12, and 15) stamping into this box. Just wanted to give you a head's up.

I selected this site for the planting of "The Streak" because it abuts the former, now closed, Moonstone Beach, once a safe haven for "clothing optional" sunbathers. Closed in the early 1980's to protect the habitat of the piping plover, many Rhode Islanders have fond memories of frolics on Moonstone Beach.

From Route 1 in South Kingstown, take the Moonstone Beach Road exit. Follow Moonstone Beach Road south for one mile to Matunuck Schoolhouse Road. (Note Daddy's Bread on the corner. Go in for a wonderful treat!) Take a right onto Matunuck Schoolhouse Road, and follow it 0.7 miles to the refuge entrance on the left. Park your car in the lot.

Enter the wooden planked trail entrance to the refuge by the Ranger's building. Follow this trail into the refuge. Check out the refuge map on your right along the way. When you come to where Otter goes left, Osprey goes right and the Farm makes a loop, you will be gazing out at a beautiful vista. You may go either left or right to explore this amazing wildlife refuge. When you have finished exploring, return to the sign post. With your back to the sign, walk 10 steps back towards the building. Notice the grouping of rocks on the left side of the trail. Reach behind the tall center upright rock for "The Streak".
