It’s True: Rhode – Island – Rocks!
July 27th, 2010
Welcome to Rhode-Island-Rocks.com! Here you’ll find interesting, useful, and just plain fun information about the Ocean State. Little Rhody may be the smallest of the fifty states (only 1,045 square miles of land area), but it’s big in history, fabulous scenery, and lots of great “happenings” the year round.
So, what is happening in Rhode Island? We’ll update this (and the other features) regularly, but let’s start by mentioning a couple of important anniversaries. One of them celebrates a place you’re certain to want to visit. Check out these milestones.
And be sure to check out Water Fire in Providence!
Rhode Island spots to visit. Did you know that the Ocean State has four vineyards, five National Wildlife Refuges, and 13 Audubon Wildlife Refuges (14 if you count one in Seekonk, MA, maintained by the Audubon Society of Rhode Island)? Not to mention Rhody’s state parks, museums, and churches (John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Bouvier were married in Newport). And lighthouses galore! Visit these featured Rhode Island spots.
Amazing Rhode Island facts. There’s a truly marvelous variety of things to be learned about Little Rhody, from little tidbits to fascinating historical tales.
