Hannukha The Festival of Lights is this week. At Sunset, in awe and wonder we light the Menorah, watch the candles dance, and then sputter. Repeat for eight days.
The Light Show is yours daily at Dewey Beach. We are a tiny strip of sand, a Barrier Island, we have Dawn over the ocean and Sunset over the Bay!
In the morning the light is cool and opal-blue. In the evening warm oranges and pinks paint the sky and reflect on the homes.
Sunset is when we walk our dogs. Or walk the beach to Nalu's to take in the live music and Happy Hour.
Sunset is where we celebrate: on roof top decks, and Bay- side restaurants; Que Pasa, North Beach, and The Light House are favorites.
North Beach: the sunset "clock" hands point to the next days show-time. We know how many days of Summer are left to us just by tracking the Sun's Bay-dipping point!
Que Pasa: When the glass garage doors are up, it is as if you pulled your pontoon up to the dock and got out for a drink!
The Light House's Friday Taco Toss is the "required" place to be. The sunset backdrops the bar action and the Orange Crush drinks in hand.
At Sunset, Cape Henlopen State Park sees local romantic couples walking the Beach Pavilion Boardwalk, and Fishing Pier to survey the enchantment. The breakwater and two Lighthouses set the scene along with sailing vessels.
Lewes's Roosevelt Inlet is " The Secret" local spot...... only a few fisherman are there to enjoy the end of the day. The Bay flashes neon above and bounces off the sand beach.
July 4th Fireworks on the beach celebrates all above as it carries on the show just as Mother Nature's Nuclear Spectacle dozes, sleeps, and then..... repeats!
Beach Blessings,
