Definition: (v) praise enthusiastically
Location Placed: Roger Williams National Park, Providence, Rhode Island

I learned a bit about Roger Williams and his contribution to Rhode Island (namely his discovery of it.) I really appreciated the visitor's center as I was able to see how Providence was laid out back when it was first found and which families had which plots of land. Everyone had a water view it seemed, which was pretty solid in the days of farming. There's also a pretty awesome statue of him over looking the city from a higher vantage point (in a different park a little further up the hill.)
