With fresh radishes and so many other vegetables on display, who would refuse the opportunity to stop by the farmer's market in Berlin? Evidently, the people in town agree, because this place was bustling with customers. Kellie Voisine (above) was hardly able to spare a moment to talk to us between purchases.
Our stay in Dover, Delaware was full of many events from a historic lantern tour to a local bazaar; it was a gambit of events that truly highlighted the gems of this small capital city.
Lantern Tour on the Green
Dover's history involves interesting events such as a murder by chocolate and the overnight ride of Caesar Rodney to Philadelphia to make Delaware the first state...things we did not know about until this telling tour.
Off the coast of Maryland, deep in the waters of the Chesapeake, sits an island that goes by the name of Smith. Accessible only by ferry, this place is a reminder of the life of fishermen's days gone by.
Broken down and abandoned crab and fishery shacks pop up along the marshes that surround the villages of Tylerton, Ewell, and Rhodes Point; graying wood and collapsed ceilings, with pelicans and seagulls perched on the pylons that were once docks or fishing piers.
The morning dew sat thick on the car and the soil when the sun rose on the Eastern Shore on Sunday. Hurricane Bill was flooding the airwaves with promises of killer waves and tumultuous seas. So the decision was made; it was mandatory to witness the mayhem first hand. To get to the destination in mind, one must take some sort of water craft, be it a motor boat, jet ski, or, in our case, kayaks.
In what could be describe as a floating caravan, six of us put in somewhere near Daugherty, Virginia and began the beautiful hour paddle through the pristine salt marshes, down Folly's creek towards Cedar Island in hopes of great tempest waves, but instead what we found was a much needed day or serenity and tranquility.
Leaving Salisbury, Maryland, Melanie and I aimed the Volvo due south for the tip of the Delmarva Peninsula with hopes of dipping our toes in Chesapeake right where it meets the great Atlantic.
Route 13 is one of the must-use arteries running down Virginia's Eastern Shore. Shooting straight down the spine of the area that's only five miles at it's widest point, this little highway connects the small towns and villages that dot this fairly-untouched land.
