Delaware Beaches, What’s Going On?, Activities, Events, Entertainment
Well, if we can get through the month of February, we will be in great shape. If you are visiting this week-end the Beaches, it is cold; but very pretty, as well.
Even though it is cold and quiet at the beaches, as I was walking my dog, Addy, this morning I noticed buds on the pear trees. I hope that is a sign that winter will not last another 6 weeks. Wishful thinking? I think so.

This Wednesday’s film is Bomber. It is a bittersweet comedy. Alistar and Vallerie have been planning a special trip to Germany for a very long time. When their son Ross stops by the house to send them off, happenstance turns into an impromptu family road trip of the most tortuous kind. Alistar berates Ross for all that he is not in life, while Valerie tries to keep the peace. It is soon discovered that Alistar’s reason for the often comic sometimes painful trip is to shed a guilt he’s been carrying for years. Ultimately, the family learns they need each other more than they imagined. Not rated, Runtime is 85 minutes.
