Hi Everyone. Today's trip takes us to a New England state. We are
going to Narragansett, Rhode Island. I have been there and it is
a beautiful place.

States. The population was 15,868 at the 2010 census. However, during
the summer months the Town's population more than doubles to near
34,000. The nickname for the town is "Gansett". The town of
Narragansett occupies a narrow strip of land running along the eastern
bank of the Pettaquamscutt River to the shore of Narragansett Bay. It
was incorporated as a town in 1901.

Narragansett is known for its summer recreation and beaches.
Fishermen's Memorial State Park, contains a former military fort.

January is normally the coldest month with average temperatures between
19 and 38 degrees Fahrenheit. July is normally the warmest month
