Today’s food for thought is from Benjamin Disraeli: “How much easier it is to be critical than to be correct.” (Fred) “Those who yell the loudest about an issue, rarely now all the facts; the sound bit is killing this country by polarizing everything. What happened to a civil discourse of the issues.”

Fred’s pick of the day is MLS #604256-$179,900. A nice sized rancher in Bridgeville DE has 3 BR, 1 BA, in 1350 Sq. Ft. on 10.25 acres of which 3.5 are cleared. Call me to see this home at 302 258-6983. www.fredsporch.com

July 4th Plans in Sussex

Unbelievably, it’s already July! With the celebration of Independence Day later this week I thought I would spend some time highlighting a few of the best options for celebrating July 4^th in Sussex County. Here are a couple of fun options for the family:

Old Fashioned 4^th of July in Lewes: On the Fourth of July enjoy old fashioned children’s games and activities begin at 9am on 2^nd Street. The decorated boat parade on the canal begins at 2pm and the “Infamous Doo-Dah Parade” begins around 5pm across from BeeBe Medical Center just off of Savannah Road – jump right in and join the fun! Lewes’ Old Fashioned 4^th of July is sponsored by the City of Lewes, the Lewes Chamber of Commerce and the Lightship Overfalls.

Small Town Charm in Laurel: Celebrate Independence Day on Saturday, July 6^th with small-town charm in Laurel. Events begin at 11am with the annual parade. Other highlights include old fashioned family games at noon, a hot dog eating contest at 1:30pm, and fireworks over the lake at 9:15pm. There will be events, food, and vendors all day long.

Celebrate Cruise Style: Make reservations on the Cape May-Lewes Ferry for the spectacular fireworks cruise on the Delaware Bay on Wednesday, July 3rd. The cruise departs Lewes at 7:15pm. Make reservations online or call 800-643-3779.

I’ll be back tomorrow with more great options for celebrating our nation’s independence in Sussex County.
