"Striking Countryside Location in Laurel, De"

Another fine-looking residential neighborhood possibly zoned agricultural too located in Laurel, Delaware. This street has many fine homes which may not be far from chicken growers. From the aerial details on the map it appears this maybe the case.

However, I suppose there are various tradeoffs to consider when deciding to live in a rural location. After all Delmarva Peninsula is well-known as a huge chicken growers’ region.

The impact of all the chicken waste can be potent, as it washes off the fields and seeps into groundwater and, water is essential to the general public!

FYI-- drinking water in central and southern Delaware is supplied mostly by wells.

"Beautiful country location sandwiched between chicken coops..."

A nice residential /agricultural area located on ONEALS RD in Delaware. There are a number of fine homes on this road among various chicken growers on the street.

However, I suppose that the winds carrying the stench of ammonia can be a bit much if one is not accustom to this type of country living understanding in some parts of Delmarva which is noted as a large chicken growers’ region.

These fine-looking homes in this vicinity perhaps could be affected by nasty side-effects along with runoff and pollution.

The impact of all the chicken waste can be powerful, as it washes off the fields and seeps into groundwater.

"While living on the Eastern Shore of Delmarva it is extremely windy at times."

While living on the Eastern Shore of Delmarva it is extremely windy at times.
The Delmarva Peninsula is a large peninsula on the East Coast of the United States

Essentially every property owner will have to deal with roofing issues sooner or later which is why some homeowners have chosen ‘metal roofing’ as a tentative once in a life time repair.

The two close-up shots of these homes side by side are located on E State St, in Delmar, Delaware. I suspect that the roof replacements were done around the same timeframe.

The flavor of neighborhood is very diverse in its characteristics and is close to all amenities.

"A particularly gorgeous home located in the country..."

A particularly gorgeous home located in the country on Sharptown Rd, / Laurel Rd on Rt. 24 in Laurel, Delaware.

The images taken of this scene does not do it any justice – which is why I attempted to shot it from various locations.

For this reason I probably should consider investing in a wide angle lens!

"On occasion a Backyard Lake during a downpour"

This location in the neighborhood of Mantua is likely to flood due to the creek that flows behind the properties on 1st Ave when it rains heavy. The waters can rise to the level of the back door.
However, the people in this location were friendly and it's close to shopping & other amenities.

"Very nice apartments nestle away in area fine mansions"

I visited a friend that lives in a pristine section of Moorestown that has lovely apartment building tucked away in this area of absolutely fine magnificent mansions. She's within walking distance to a nearby church and many other services. It’s good to know that a developer thought to provide accommodation for the renter folks who wanted to live in area that has the reputation like awesome community!

"Not so super -- Supercenter in DE"

This is the location of the 24-hr Wal-Mart Supercenter located in Seaford, DE.

Although I like the tax-free shopping that Delaware offers this is the Wal-Mart of last resort because of my having to travel 18 miles one way for food shopping they seem never to have the shelves stocked which make it feel like a complete waste of time!

I have gone there at different times and it’s the same scenario.

"Hwy to TAX-FREE shopping"

Sussex Highway in Laurel is the main route to Delaware’ tax-free shopping-- you definitely need a vehicle if you live in the State of Delaware and surrounding areas.

"Very busy road especially during the holidays!"

Church Rd can be a very busy road especially during the holidays! If you live off any side street associated with this road you'll need patience. Yet, it's the main way that gets you out of the community. Church Road leads to Cherry Hill Mall Drive.

I suspect you have to deal with the good as well as the bad while living in this neck of the woods!

"Growing up in this community was a blessing!"

Cherry Hill, NJ is considered a very prominent place to live whether on the east or west sides. Centrally located close to everything and just minutes away from Philadelphia, PA -- The 08003 zip code is the east side of this town—this is where Muhammad Ali had a home in the Charleston Riding development.. This area consists of large luxurious homes that are located close to everything and is convenient to shopping, and array of various types’ services…
GREAT place to have had the opportunity growing up in this community!!!

"Warm hospitality found on this street"

I developed warm relationships with my friends who lived in this humble neighborhood. This was like a 2nd home to me. Since much time has past a lot of changes have taken place throughout the years. It’s been almost 20 years and our friendships are still intact however everyone is now spread apart living their lives in various parts of the county.
There's still more traveling to do!!!

"Too much police activity & limited on street parking…"

After selling my home in FL I stayed with friends until I was able to find a home that suited my needs. My stay in this area was very brief and I am surprised that I choose to write a review for this experience. Though I was grateful to have this as a temporary base to work from while I went out full-time house searching!

"Unpleasant stay at the Crystal Inn -- North East, MD"

My being a guest at the Crystal Inn in Northeast Maryland 2003 to 2004, I learned while spending time in their reception area that people should most definitely search the Internet for the current going room rates. I saw that when certain people arrived unannounced they were quoted extremely higher prices in order to turn them away.
I lived in an apartment arrangement that had very nice accommodations however the manager at that time was extremely rude towards me as a short term resident. He would actually through away my postal mail that was delivered to this location.
Because of my various guest experiences with this company, I would advise one not to do a walk-in situation again! If possible check the going rates on their website and reserve the room or call ahead to check the room availability and rates—remember to get the representative’ name. You can save a lot of money if you remember these little details!!!
If it was not for a conscientious honest front desk worker I would have never suspected that my mail was being discarded by the acting manager. This particular person was kind enough to have my credit card information DELETED after my stay ended.

"Beautiful community close to the Gulf of Mexico."

This is a beautiful community located close to the Gulf of Mexico. I visited this neighborhood while house shopping. The realtor who showed me this area purchased a home for him & his wife. Because this area was close to the Gulf I choose to buy in a NO FLOOD zone neighborhood. My concern was the cost of homeowners insurance especially living in the hurricane region.

"A delightful time spent at the beach in Hudson, FL"

As a previous resident of the state of Florida and as a local to this area I enjoyed spending much time at the Hudson Beach, FL location. The beach is quaint and is small but is a wonderful way to pass the time of day. For the most part there always seem to be a lovely breeze coming from the Gulf of Mexico while being close to the waters edge or while sitting under the pavilion that provides protection from the SUN on those extremely HOT days. Most folks come to relax, play cards, read books or just to socialize. The people I met while visiting this location were very friendly and I looked forward to meeting new people whenever the opportunity presented itself. This beach is located on Florida's west coast about 40 miles north of St. Petersburg. It was a joy to have this resource nearby only minutes from my home in Port Richey. The only negative issue that I observed was the limited parking. However, they have CLEAN restrooms accommodations.

"Great place for all generations to see…"

What a terrific spot with magnificent memories of past times. This area has many long trails for hiking with a group, friend, dog or just you walking through the pines enjoying the natural surroundings by yourself. There are many buildings that are open to the pubic for viewing past artifacts. There are various sites & building, there is a Batsto mansion, sawmill, a 19th century ore boat too much to list everything in this review. What a wonderful place to visit should you find yourself in this neck of the woods, no pun intended! I hope you will enjoy the images I captured there during my many visits.
