There are so many options within an hour or two drive from Normandy Farms, that I don't know where to begin.....
3 miles up the road from Normandy is Gillette Stadium/Patriot Place with food, shopping, Patriots Pro Shop and Hall of Fame. I believe the Pats will be starting their preseason workouts in early August as well, which are usually open to the public. Every other Thursday night, there is a huge custom/antique car show at the stadium as well, if you happen to have the right week. And BassPro is there.
About 10 miles from the CG are the Wrentham Outlets - a huge shopping area.
In Boston ---
Freedom Trail
Red Sox game
Harbor Tours
Duck-Boat Tours
Museum of Science
Fanueil Hall/Quincy Market
Chinatown
Italian North End
New England Aquarium
North of Boston ---
Gloucester/Rockport/Salem
South of Boston --- (East/Southeast from Normandy)
Plymouth
Cape Cod (watch out for terrible traffic on weekend days)
Rhode Island ---
Newport ---- Mansion tours, Ocean Drive, shopping and amazing seafood
Providence ---- Federal Hill for the best Italian Food you'll ever eat.
Narragansett --- Right along the water - gorgeous area to see the sights.
Stretching the distance a bit, you can drive down to New Bedford and hop the ferry to Martha's Vineyard for the day.
Or Mystic Seaport in CT - Probably 1 3/4hr drive from Normandy, but lots to see and do.
