10 things to do in Narragansett this summer!









As in my previous blog I lamented about the transition from July to August I thought it might be a good time to highlight some of the things that must be done prior to the end of the summer. I am going to focus on Narragansett although one of these lists can be made for many of our Towns and I challenge my fellow bloggers to follow up with such a list or add their favorites to my list. My list tends to have an adult slant to it but I am more than happy to hear about family favorites too! They will not be in any particular order but here they are!

1) Spend a day at chair 1 at Narragansett Town Beach.

2) Go to Galilee and take a ferry to Block Island for the day.

3) Pull a small boat up to the mouth of Narrow River at the North end of Narragansett Beach and spend the entire day there.

4) Lunch or dinner at Aunt Carrie's

5) Have at least 1 lobster roll at Twin Willow's

6) Have a cocktail on the Deck at Amalfi on a Sunday afternoon with the diverse and interesting beach crowd.

7) Have a barn fire at Sand Hill Cove beach.
8) Ride a bike to the Pt Judith Lighthouse and have a picnic there.

9) Go dancing at the Towers on a Thursday night.
10) Look for crabs under the rocks at low tide at the South end of Narragansett Town Beach.
I have probably missed all kinds of things and I would love to hear the thoughts of our readers. However, I am going to make sure that I scratch each item off of my list before the end of the summer and I hope to add some new ones too!

One of my favorite things to do is float down Narrow river. You can start anywhere you wish along the river. It is so refreshing and relaxing to be suspended while traveling being able to look at the beautiful sky.
2. Clean out the garage and give or throw away as much stuff as possible.
3. rasberry picking
4.grape jelly making
5.bring a beverage and sit on the wall in the a.m. and watch the sunrise.
6.have a party and have West Bay Gourmet cater it.
7. have reflexology at Pam Labrecht's studio.
8.have a willow tree chicken salad pannini with fontina at Town Meats.
9. Make grilled lobsters on the grill
10.check out the cool new merchandise at Marshalls

How about perching upon the rock getty in Galilee and waving to all the boaters that sail, motor and paddle by?

If you can vote against Lenihan, Durkin, and Handrigan, do it. They control the council and do anything they can to further their business interests/profit at the expense of the town. They are ruining everything we like about Narragansett.
