@pfbacon, Funny, Peggy, how some of these places with supposedly great reputations don't necessarily stack up. In 2013 my wife went to Duke In North Carolina to discuss cancer surgery and treatment and was supposed to meet with 4 or 5 doctors. Duke has this incredible reputation to most people. Anyway, they put us in an exam room and we waited almost 4 hours in this uncomfortable little space before we got someone's attention who figured out for us that one doctor thought she was supposed to wait for another doctor to see us first and then give her the signal that it was her turn. So we got there around noon and so this was about 4pm when we began the round of visits by the 4 or 5 doctors in sequence. I think we got out by about 6:30pm. That just seemed to us so disorganized and unprofessional it confirmed that we were not going to have anything done there!

By the way, I remember my grandfather driving to Lewes for one thing or another (I was too little to care). My sister now lives in Newark, De. and still goes to Bethany periodically to enjoy the sun and sand. Best, Hank

Good afternoon cwallen9.

So, you are the one who fell in love with Bethany Beach. We had a summer beach house that we managed about 3 houses from the beach. We used to play Pinochle with neighbors until 3 in the morning. Is Bethany Beach still a dry community? I also lived in Laurel, Bethel, Milford, and Dover. Seems like a lot of places. We also spent time in Lewes and Dewey. As a West Coast person, my years in Delaware were eye-openers as I met folks with huge families......who came to reunions every year with 100 or so relatives. I spent 15 years on faculty at DTCC in both Georgetown and Dover. I was always introduced as the girl from California. Don't know quite what that meant.

May you have contentment and ease.
Chris
