Unexpected Find - Lewes, DEL




We caught an early ferry Thursday morning, passing by Higbees Beach outside of Cape May where the butterflies mentioned earlier were grouping before their journey across the bay. Arrived in Lewes (pronounced "Lewis"), DEL, and stopped to walk around. Sheila found her first quilt shop and we had a nice lunch at a little mediterranean bistro, then walked around the town which had history dating back to the mid to late 1700's. We then headed northwest to Frank's place along the Chester River. Friday we took the larger of Frank's boats and drove about an hour to Denton, MD, where we put in and motored down to Cambridge, MD, on the Choptank River. Lunch at an interesting place called the Suicide Bridge Restaurant named after the bridge closeby with the infamous history of just such acts. Beautiful day on the boat, spent about 5 hours on the water and arrived back at Frank's cabin around 5pm.
