My husband is not a Hurricane - Hurricane BILL!

Bill couldn't create the kind of havoc the Weather Channel is talking about, could he? Back in 1996, I lived in Wilmington, North Carolina. I had escaped the Washington, DC, Beltway and was searching for a new place to call home. Then along came Fran and Bertha, two hurricanes in the same year and both caused a fair amount of damage. No one wanted to talk to this Northerner about new career opportunities for a burnt-out boomer. All they wanted to talk about was how hard it was to get their insurance agent to call them back!

If it weren't for those two hurricanes, I might still be living in Wilmington, North Carolina. But then I wouldn't have moved again to Coastal Delaware. I wouldn't have met my husband BILL to whom I have now been married for almost 7 years. I wouldn't be a Realtor in Lewes, Delaware, and we wouldn't be in the process of renovating our next home in Lewes, Delaware.

The beauty of living near the Coast in Delaware is that we usually don't see the kind of hurricane activity that our neighbors to the south can experience. AND, as many Baby Boomers are learning, Delaware is so centrally located in the heart of the Mid-Atlantic Region. We are within a short drive to Annapolis and Baltimore, Maryland, Washington, DC, Northern Virginia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvanie, all of New Jersey and New York City or Long Island.

So, let's hope Hurricane BILL passes us by this weekend and heads out to sea. And if you haven't yet visited Lewes, Delaware, come see us this fall. Lewes is a year round place to visit and a great town in which to live.
