One of the reasons we all love New England is the autumn weather. The dry, temperate weather of a Rhode Island fall is the perfect opportunity to get outside for lots of seasonal (low risk – socially distant) fun. So, we’ve pulled out our faithful bucket list and updated it for this very unusual year that is 2020. We hope it gives you all the inspiration you need to make the most out of our favorite season before winter drives us all back indoors.
