The little town of Betterton, on Maryland's Eastern Shore, is a wonderful mix of summer residents and year rounders who herald from Southeastern Pennsylvania and the Baltimore Washington area. While the sun is out and the views of the Chesapeake Bay and Sassafras river spectacular, the land is begging for the promised rain. Rain or not this hamlet is a little known gem that had its hay day in the 50's and is waiting for its re-emergence as a prime place to live and enjoy life. Stay tuned for the comings and goings of its politics, events, and people and feel free to share stories, comments and key events.
With our long time Mayor rumored to be stepping down, who will belly up to the Bar, something Betterton doesn't have, to run in the fall elections? We do, however, have a great site with direct views of the beach and Bay for an entrepreneurial restaurateur. The Betterton Blogger wants your rumors and thoughts. Need a cat or kitten, Betterton has the largest available population of these creatures in Kent County, ask any resident. Need some extra money, don't miss Betterton Day, the first Saturday in August and take your chances with Cow Plop Bingo while enjoying a parade, music, crab cakes and beer.
What would you think of a hydrofoil between Philadelphia, Betterton and Baltimore? A bit much, well how about Megabus or Bolt Bus service that stops in Chestertown?

ReplyDeleteAgreed, Ano, we need to keep it going in the right direction. With that, who are the Council and Mayor candidates? Hopefully Miss Candie will change her mine for the betterment of Betterton!
