We did the one hour walking tour of Lewes today and had a great time! Our tour guide was so funny…read moreand engaging! We walked around to a few different houses, graveyards, and buildings on the tour. You don't have to walk all that far, but keep in mind the tour is standing and sometimes in the sun. We enjoyed learning more about the history of Lewes and think the tour was well worth the $10 fee. We will be back again soon!

Except for the constant traffic and people riding scooters all over the road and on sidewalks, I…read morewould recommend OC as a weekend or 3 or 4 day getaway destination. Gone are the days of a week by the ocean due to very high rental rates. NY'ers won't be deterred by the prices but I'd dare say most of the rest of the east coast may be. AND- some hotels charge to park your car. Ocean City MD is frequented by more Washingtonians, Northern, Virginians and Some Philly area people and all the towns in between whereas the Jersey shore towns are more Philly area peeps. Locals are incredibly nice and friendly and work very hard. The restaurant scene is vibrant and instep with bigger cities. The lifeguards are among the best on the east coast. The beaches are well kept. Downtown offers easy access to the boardwalk and the inlet. Midtown offers some access to the boardwalk with more restaurants. Uptown up to the Delaware border can be a little crowded on the beach because of high rises, but you can find anything you want in Ocean City. There are a couple of Facebook pages where you can find information about what you need just by searching the search option at the top inside the microscope. A question you want to ask is probably already been asked 20 or 30 times this season so it's easier for you just to do the search.

There are a couple of lighthouses here in the Delaware Bay and this one is very definitely the…read moreHarbor of Refuge light. It is a cast-iron structure that was built in 1926 and is designed to handle even the most intense Atlantic weather. It is 76 feet tall and has a black base, a white conical tower and a black lantern level at the top. The light on the tower has been replaced a few times but it currently operated by solar power and includes a fog signal that is also powered by solar. I saw the lighthouse today from the Lewes-Cape May Ferry https://www.yelp.com/biz/cape-may-lewes-ferry-north-cape-may-4?hrid=eqhIEWJmJAJ_9Ndxpt223w but it can also be seen from the tip of Cape Henlopen State Park https://www.yelp.com/biz/cape-henlopen-state-park-lewes. The lighthouse is operated by the Delaware River and Bay Lighthouse Foundation. While the lighthouse is not accessible from land, there are boat tours that bring you to the lighthouse, if that's something that appeals to you.

Just off the Georgetown Circle and to the northeast, this bright blue marker points out the history…read moreof women getting the right to vote in the state. The marker is in front of the Superior Court of Delaware and hard to miss. There is street parking available. The marker reads, "On March 16, 1920, Sussex County's members of the Delaware General Assembly held a conference in Georgetown to hear opinions for and against women's suffrage. Suffragists and anti-suffragists organized similar gatherings throughout the state that spring. Governor Townsend called the state legislature into a special session on March 22 to address the ratification of the 19th Amendment and other issues. The Senate ratified the amendment, but in a victory for anti-suffragists, the House adjourned on June 2 without passing it. Women earned the right to vote after Tennessee became the 36th state to ratify the 19th Amendment on August 18, 1920." Here in 2022, I look back and wonder why women didn't always have the right to vote. And it's pretty We've come quite some way in the last hundred years, eh? This is marker number SC-284 and was erected in 2020 by the Delaware Public Archives. [Review 18178 overall - 96 in Delaware - round number 1700 of 2022.]
