Today we took a family trip down to Ninigret Park State Park in Charlestown, Rhode Island. We went there because artist Thomas Dambo created two new Trolls to display there. Thomas takes recycled wood and other materials to create his trolls. These are very large art installations and they are always very fun and interesting to see. We saw some a few years ago at Bernheim Forest and Arboretum in Kentucky when we visited Tara. There were several trolls there spread out throughout the park. There are only the two in Charlestown and they are fairly close together.
The trolls are Greta and Eric. We visited Great first and then off to Eric. It was a nice easy walk to get to each one. We were scouting the location for a potential future visit with Allison’s parents.
After our walk we had lunch at Monahan’s Clam Shack & Restaurant. It was an okay place with some cornhole sets and picnic tables. The clamcakes and chowder were great and Allison loved her clam roll, which was probably because I ate the one clam that was filled with all the sand and clam shells in Rhode Island. That was not fun. But every other clam was perfect according to Allison. Glad I could help.
