The States Of Modern: Rhode Island
Rhode Island may be our union’s smallest state, but it’s big on beauty, coastline, friendly people and history.
Known as the Ocean State, Rhode Island has lots of coastline and fabulous ocean views. I visited the state right after the devastation of Hurricane Sandy and was still utterly charmed by its loveliness. From its bustling capitol, Providence, to its tiny historic towns to beautiful Newport with its over-the-top mansions, Rhode Island is a gorgeous state.
The State Flag is a gold anchor surrounded by stars… I used a similar anchor for our block.
