This city originally was a pass-through on the way to Roger Williams University. However, I needed to spend an hour somewhere before the New Bedford Whaling Historic Park opened. Thus, I chose the Colt State Park on the east side of the Narragansett Bay. It was a good choice. Peaceful, scenic, few people (although many were walking by along the shore and a few were fishing). The park was just a mile or so northwest of Roger Williams University when I was planning to go to so I could photograph the campus signs.
