Rehoboth Beach, Delaware Beaches, The Nation’s Summer Capital, Warm Weather, Blue Skies, A Taste of Summer!

A Taste of Summer!!  You can just tell Rehoboth Beach is ready; excitement is in the air.  My parking Angel came on handy as I found parking just by the Bandstand on Rehoboth Avenue, overlooking Thrasher’s, Kohr Bros, and Dolle’s!!

Then, another telltale that summer is upon us is The Jolly Trolley….a great way to get around.  It was parked right by the Bandstand, waiting for customers.  The Jolly Trolley celebrates and shares the sights, smells, colors and characteristics of the Rehoboth Beach/Dewey Beach Resort areas.  Friday, 5/10, until 2 a.m.  Saturday, 5/11,  10 a.m. until 2 a.m.  Memorial Day, The Jolly Trolley will be servicing the area every day from 8 a.m. until 2 a.m. $2.50 one way.  Children under 5 years of age pay $1.  For more info., please visit http://www.jolllytrolley.com.

I spotted a kid coming out with a freshly made funnel cake!!  He showed it to me and this really screamed summer!

Then I asked the friends from Smyrna, Delaware if I could take their picture with their summer favorite.  From Kohr Bros!!  One just showed me the cone; the other one was not shy.

Then, I turned around because it smelled so good…Thrasher’s French Fries!!  Perfectly cooked, crispy….hopefully, she showered them with vinegar.

The Boardwalk Grub…it’s what you will remember.  Rehoboth Beach has wonderful restaurants.  They are really good!  But, there is something about hitting those summer favorites, right by the water!!  Priceless!

Which reminds me that the Rehoboth Museum, located on Rehoboth Avenue by the Visitor’s Center, is opening an exhibit called “Beach Eats” on Memorial Day.  It will feature memorabilia from establishments both old and new that have served generations of locals and beach-goers for years.  According to the Rehoboth Beach Historical Society and Museum Director, Nancy Alexander, the eateries in the resort city bring back many happy times and stories that go along with them.

It was great to see the Boardwalk crowded.  And, the ones sitting by the beach were enjoying one awesome day!

Summer tends to have an effect on people.  It is that laissez faire attitude, when we let things take their own course….so when you leave it all behind this summer to come to Southern Delaware, remember….
