Delaware Wine & Ale Trail
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!
Heirloom Tomato Tasting at Furnace Town
Furnace Town Living Heritage Museum in Snow Hill, Maryland just hosted this years installment of their Annual Heirloom Tomato Tasting. There were 23 different types of heirloom tomatoes that were all grown either on site or by one of their board members. You can't get any fresher than that! It inspired us to write this little ditty which is pretty fresh in its own right.
Bitty Babies - The Salisbury Zoo
The Salisbury Zoo is a hidden gem. It's a 12 acre zoo tucked in to Salisbury that houses over 110 animals from American alligators to flamingos and otters, ocelots and red wolves, two-toed sloths and jaguars, llamas, turtles, macaws, and the oldest living Andean bear in captivity. It's an incredible place.
