History is always better when there's a chance to let it interact with all five of your senses. We just visited two of Salisbury's most notable historic homes Pemberton Hall (circa 1741) and the Poplar Hill Mansion (circa 1795). Both homes have had extensive restoration and also have very friendly and knowledgable guides to give tours. Walk through history. Touch it. Hear it. See it. Smell it. And since you can't taste anything at these homes stop by Market Street Inn for a delicious meal.

TIP: Try the key lime pie!

Delaware was the first to become a state in this great nation. As a result there's tons of history here. Check out some of these spots on your next visit. Take a look at Visit Delaware for more information.

TIP: Try the ice cream made in colonial flavors at Jessop's Tavern. Brown Ale, Sweedish Lingonberry Vodka and more!

Geocaching your way through Delaware is a hands-on way to get outside and discover more than just the obvious treasures. The Delaware trail could have you strolling through parks, hiking through refuges, or gallivanting along old Native American settlements. Whether its a favorite pass time or a way to occupy the kids while waiting for the next event, geocaching is a great way to pass the time with the ones you love.

REMEMBER: "Cache In - Trash Out" While it is expected that Geocachers will not leave trash in a geocache area, it goes beyond that. Geocachers strive to be good environmental stewards. Take along a plastic bag or two when you geocache. Collect any trash you might find along the way. Help improve the area.

Your Host Our Coast hosts love beer... a lot. Red beer, blue beer, old beer, new beer, we're fans. (and so was Dr. Suess) One of the many perks of the coolest job on the coast and also the one that we are most often reminded of is this simple fact. It's our job to drink beer. We checked out three stops on the Delaware Wine and Ale Trail, sampled the goods and made this to share with you guys. Delaware has lots of excellent local libations so get yourself out on the trail as often and as soon as you can. Cheers!

Assateague National Seashore is a gem. It's 37 miles of coastal barrier island that's pristine undeveloped wilderness. There's miles of empty shoreline on the ocean side and hundreds of coves and inlets on the bay side. All that open space gives the local animals plenty of room to set up shop. One of them, the wild pony, is unique to the island. Take your family, spend at least a day if not a week, and see what the park has to offer. Make sure to check out the brand new visitors center and the Rackliffe House. Tours of the house are available on Thursdays through October from 1-4p.m.

TIP: If you plan in advance, you can camp!
