Events…Quieter than Usual at the Delaware Beaches…and…Ocean City, Maryland…
Rehoboth Beach Christmas Tree
Even though it is getting quieter than usual at my beaches, there are still plenty of things to do besides all the shopping that the area has available.
Restaurants are open with all kinds of specials during the week. People are walking around all bundled up since it has gotten pretty chilly. But, it does feel great to be outside.
The other night when I was coming from Ocean City to Rehoboth I could not believe that there was not a car on the road. I saw a few deer here and there, though.
Tonight we went to get something to eat in Rehoboth Beach. I will tell you about it later. Afterwards we took a ride around town. Rehoboth is all lit up and the lights give the town a peaceful glow.
Even though, in the Spring, I look forward to the waking up of these beach towns and love to see the people enjoy what we sometimes take for granted, it is so nice to be downtown when the streets are bare and I don’t know how to explain it but I love it.
For now I have a few events to mention:

I know this organization. I adopted Addy last May and she has been a great dog. She feels so secured now and she is such a funny dog. She is definitely part of our family. To see the post I wrote on her on October 7th, just click on the month of October and scroll down.
I know that at this time of the year, people tend to give pets as presents. Please do remember that this is a serious undertaking, so make sure you are ready to take care of the pet.
Good night…Talk to you tomorrow…and Chinese Food will be on the menu…
