You will never have to pay to be listed as a top neighbor. Period. That important detail clarified, let's discuss how we arrive at two "top neighbors" for a given region:
Localism is a bustling collection of hyper-local communities, and the top neighbors should reflect those members who are most active. When ranking users in a given region, several factors are considered. To get your foot in the proverbial door, you need to have posted at least one "Localism" article or photo for the region.
The very best way to quickly rise to #1 is to post high-quality local content. Keeping a steady strem of incoming posts and photos will massively tilt the scales in your favor.
What doesn't count toward the top neighbor ranking? ActiveRain points and community sponsorships. The top neighbor spots will always go to the most active members in a region. We want to create a level playing field that encourages the growth of communities — talent and dedication are required to win the day.
Once again I found myself walking Rocky (my mixed lab from the Annapolis SPCA) about sunset on the penultimate evening in January 2012 on Thompson Creek off the Chesapeake Bay. It's been unseasonably warm this year. I can't wait to find out whether the common saying about March "in like a lion, out like a lamb" will hold true. In February 2010 there were 34 inches of snow on the ground, but this year the question is how warm will it be and high will the temperature go?
No two sunsets are ever the same on Thompson Creek in Stevensville Maryland. Every time I look at the sky, day or night, it is always different. For example, two nights ago there was a halo around the moon suggesting that rain would come soon. Last night it was clear with stars sprinkled here and there.
Sunsets can be found up and down the Western expanse of Kent Island from Bloody Point to Love Point. Bloody Point is located at the Southern end of Kent Island at the intersection of Eastern Bay and the Chesapeake Bay. Love Point is located at the Northern end of Kent Island where the Chester River and the Chesapeake Bay intertwine. According to sources Kent Island is 31.62 square miles with miles and miles of Chesapeake Bay shoreline.
Thompson Creek is located on Kent Island which is in Stevensville Maryland situated on the Chesapeake Bay. The Chesapeake Bay Bridge's Eastern foot is sets down on Kent Island. The Bay Bridge is metro-Washington, Baltimore, Virgina and Pennsylvania's gateway to the Atlantic Ocean beaches in Delaware and Maryland.

Thompson Creek Reflections, Stevensville, Maryland, 21666
The morning was off to a cool and crisp start. Whiffs of fog could be seen in the early on the Thompson Creek in Stevensville, Maryland. Overnight temperatures had dropped into the 40's but as the sun came up, the day started to warm up and it looked quite promising.
Rocky (my Lab-Rhodesian mix) begged for a walk to the public ramp on Thompson Creek. He enjoys walking there to see what the crabbers and fisherman have left behind for him to find. He's thinks he's such a sly hunter.
We got down to the ramp to find that here wasn't much wind and the water was like glass. I stopped to take the picture above. The Sea Gull didn't stay long on top of the mooring pole. I guess we disturbed him. I'm grateful that I took time to, at Rocky's encouragement, to walk down to the public boat ramp at Thompson Creek. Mornings on the water in Stevensville, Maryland don't get much better than this!

This Is Why I Live On The Chesapeake Bay In Stevensville Maryland - July 2011
On Monday August 1 2011 the temperature felt like it broke another record only to just barely crest 91 degrees. By early evening conditions were just right for sever thundershowers. Bearing down from Baltimore, crossing the Chesapeake Bay, storms approached Stevensville Maryland. On either side of Thompson Creek storm cells passed with little rain falling between them. The sun set in the West-northwest sky. Clouds turned from blue-grey to yellow-orange. The temperature fell from 90-something to 70-something bringing welcome relief. It was a spectacular sunset on Thompson Creek in Stevensville Maryland. Rocky and I lingered on the pier catching the very last rays of the final minutes of sunset.
Fewer boats launched this year probably with gas prices being what they are and economic conditions less than stellar. Thompson Creek is shallow with 3 feet or so with more to the middle, better for small power boats than deep draft sailboats. Summer is now more than half over. The Maryland Blue Crabs have been plentiful this season while the jelly fish have been scarce. There is still plenty of time to boat, fish and swim along the shores of the Chesapeake Bay, from Annapolis Maryland on the Western Shore to Stevensville Maryland on the Eastern Shore.
This is why I live on the water. This is why I call the Chesapeake Bay home. And you can too.
