Rhode Island pleads for aid
WARWICK, R.I. - U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano took a helicopter tour over still-flooded Rhode Island on Friday, witnessing waterlogged shopping malls and homes with people's possessions laid out to dry in their yards, as residents and officials in the already economically troubled state pleaded for her to secure more federal aid.
Rhode Island
Although Rhode Island is the smallest state, its coastline and sandy beaches top the list for beauty. And even though the coastal drive is short, you will find it's long on charm and scenic views. Start your drive on Rte. A1A in Misquamicut and follow the coast all the way to Wickford, which is a 48-mile drive. The drive will take some time because you'll find yourself stopping many times.
