President Washington’s first Thanksgiving Proclamation (New York, October 1789)
…” Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the 26th day of November next to be devoted by the People of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be. That we may then all unite in rendering unto him our sincere and humble thanks, for his kind care and protection of the People of this country previous to their becoming a Nation, for the signal and manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of his providence, which we experienced in the course and conclusion of the late war, for the great degree of tranquillity, union, and plenty, which we have since enjoyed, for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national One now lately instituted, for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge and in general for all the great and various favors which he hath been pleased to confer upon us.
And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech him to pardon our national and other transgressions, to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually, to render our national government a blessing to all the People, by constantly being a government of wise, just and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed, to protect and guide all Sovereigns and Nations (especially such as have shown kindness unto us) and to bless them with good government, peace, and concord. To promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the encrease of science among them and Us, and generally to grant unto all Mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as he alone knows to be best.”

Our favorite best is Misquamicut Beach in Westerly
Misquamicut State Beach is perfect for families. A beautiful wide sandy beach stretching for seven miles. You’ll find here bathrooms, changing areas, food stands, a big beach pavilion and many shaded areas.
Best beach for adventurers: Mohegan Bluffs, Block Island
“Any ocean lovers with a wild side, those who may appreciate a bit more of a rugged vibe, this one’s for you. Mohegan Bluffs is a patch of sea cliffs that sits on the southern tip of Block Island, which is only accessible by ferry (visitors depart from either Point Judith, RI or New London, CT). At about 150 feet tall, the tall clay cliffs are just past the Southeast Lighthouse and are reminiscent of the Cliffs of Moher in Ireland. The view from the top is stunning — you can even see Long Island (specifically, Montauk in the Hamptons) across the Atlantic.” (source: Lonely Planet)
