 Silver Lake, Rehoboth Beach...Chilly day!!
It was too cold this a.m. to do anything else so my friend Trish and I decided that it was time catch up. She is snowbirding this week-end and it was the perfect morning to get together. We chose The Point Coffee House and Bake Shoppe. I had just written a post and thought that it was time to try it out. It is located at the “point” where Rt. 1 meets 1A, at the entrance of Rehoboth Ave.
Boy was I wrong when thinking everyone had gone home we would have the place to ourselves. It was crowded. It is comfortable, cozy and Tom is just so friendly, as well as the rest of their staff.
Trish and I were good. We split our orders and kept within the confinements of New Year’s resolutions, I think.
Our breakfast was delicious…the pictures do not lie.
 
But, let’s get down to what’s going on in Rehoboth Beach…
If you are trying to unwind from the hectic holiday schedule you might want to head out tonight to the Movies at Midway at 7 p.m. The Rehoboth Film Society is featuring Karen Cries On The Bus.

Rehoboth Beach Museum is Searching for World War II Artifacts
The Museum will be hosting an exhibit that will illustrate the day-to-day life of citizens during WWII. It is looking only for items of local significance and would like to invite residents to share their family history during this time. The exhibit is scheduled to open in May 2012.
Rehoboth Beach Museum plans to recall how the lives of those who fought in the war, as well as those they had to leave at home in Rehoboth Beach were changed forever. The goal is to bring to light and life how residents of Rehoboth Beach were touched by this war; stories told, cherished objects, and visual history.
Already the museum has received photographs that illustrate a group of likely members of the Civil Air Patrol, proudly standing by their planes. Another important piece of memorabilia in the collection is a WWII rationing coupon booklet.
Nancy Alexander, the Director of the Rehoboth Beach Museum stated “This exhibit is to bring honor to those who fought in the war. Also, to remember those families who gave up some of the things they loved. Our area played a major role in the outcome of WWII and it is important to us that we share this with others”.

I knew Doggies at the Beach was the place for Addy, when I picked her up after her first trial stay and they said: “Addy just had a cannoli.”
I have mentioned before that Addy is my “rescue”. After many years of not owning a dog I decided it was time. Dogs give so much back. I wanted her to have her “forever” home. I cannot imagine what experiences she must have had. I consider her a survivor.
After researching local rescue organizations, I decided to go to a meet and greet held by Paws of Tomorrow, located in Ocean View, Delaware. Ocean View is west of Bethany Beach. They do not have a physical address to see the dogs; they are fostered and brought to different events. You can visit www.pawsoftomorrow.com.
Addy became part of my family. Her breed? Well, lots in there from Beagle to …..
The next thing I needed to find out was a boarding facility. I wanted to be able to leave her where she would be safe and well cared for. Renee, who has 2 dogs told me about Doggies at the Beach. It is a cage free facility and that was so important. Also worth mentioning is that the dogs have 24 hour human supervision. After Addy had been moved around and in different cages, I did not want her to be in a cage again. I owed her that much.
 A Cage Free Facility Another important feature of Doggies at the Beach is that you can follow your dog’s activities on the computer. Yes, they do have a camera.
So, after 2 years of using Doggies at th Beach exclusively I can totally recommend them. They are located at 18806 John J. Williams Highway, Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971 (Route 24). Tel. 302-644-8200. Website? www.doggiesatthebeach.com. You can also find them on Facebook.
Visit the website to check what is needed in the event that you would like to be a part of Doggies at the Beach.
I first took Addy for a temperament evaluation. What? This angel? She passed. Thank God. It is a free cage environment. There is a reason for the evaluation.
 Miss Addy Your dog needs to have all its shots up-to-date. A copy to be sent to Doggies at the Beach.
Besides being a boarding facility, Doggies at the Beach offers full grooming services.
At present, they have just started Training Classes. The trainer is Nicole. Excellent training credentials.
Puppy Only Training class 6/1 – 6/29 on Wednesdays from 5 to 6 p.m.
Doggie Training class (over one year) 6/1 – 6/29 Wednesdays from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
I was picking up Addy around this time and the pictures are from the training class in progress.
Dog Days of Summer will be Sunday, June 26th, from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m. at Pottery Place Parking Lot at 201717 Coastal Highway, Rehoboth Beach.
A fun for all. Best Doggie 4th of July costume contest!!, including Cutest and Precious.
Lots of Doggie Prizes!!
FREE Hot dogs and refreshments. Free Doggie Biscuit and Water for the Humans and Doggies!!
