8/20/2012 Dianne Comes to Visit!

(Rehoboth Beach, DE)


She’s visited us in Alaska, in South Dakota and now in Delaware. Not that visiting us in Delaware is any big deal, after all, she lives in Jersey.


Dianne, our former neighbor, long time friend is here for a few days. She drove to south Jersey to Cape May to catch the ferry which would save her lots of time and gas. Would have being the operative words here. When she got in line she wasn’t able to get on the ferry because it was full meaning she would have to wait for the next one. That isn’t so bad because the ferry runs ever 40 minutes or so.


So she finally gets to the campground and it was lots of hugs and smiles and so glad to see you’s. We sat outside and talked while Bob caught the afternoon high tide.


We decided that we needed to go out to dinner. Smitty McGee’s was our restaurant of choice.

I knew what I was going to have for dinner before we even left home.


Bob ordered an order of clams on the half shell and Dianne and I decided to share an appetizer.


Would you ever think to put a


Soft Pretzel….



Cheddar Cheese….



and Crab Dip….together?


Hot Crab Dip


Smitty McGee’s did and it was delicious!

We enjoyed every forkful. If you ever get the chance to have a soft pretzel smothered in crab dip and covered with melted cheddar cheese, by all means, order it.


Bob ordered fish, salmon, I think, which he thoroughly enjoyed.


Dianne ordered Shrimp Salad open faced on Rye bread, covered with melted cheddar and bacon.

I had my favorite, the Hawaiian Ciabatta.

I would have never thought to put caramelized pineapple and fried onions on the same sandwich. Oh heck, I would have never thought to even caramelize a pineapple ring let alone put it on a sandwich!


We ate until we couldn’t anymore. Mainly because we cleaned our plates.


On the way home we passed this colorful row of the beach houses.

We watched some TV when we got home, talked lots more and turned in around 11. It’s so good to be with Dianne again!
