The majority of the rest of the state is a peninsula (connected to the Norfolk Va area via the Chesapeake Bay Bridge/Tunnel) and is very rural and agrarian. The southern part feels a lot like western MA or central VA if you take out Charlottesville. It is a bit like Rhode Island in that it is difficult to find some characteristic that defines it


Actually, while it's called the DelMarVa peninsula, it is technically a man-made island because the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal that cuts through Maraland and Delaware connecting the Delaware River and Chesapeake Bay.

it was strange to see so many chicken houses and corn growing to support them. We grow more chicken in GA but I would guess that there are more per unit area on Delmarva.


Funny that you mention chickens. In the late '90's I worked for a ship services company and would help ships at the Port of Wilmington. Many of them were reefer ships that would take on a load of frozen chicken headed to Russia.

The Russian crew were always looking for used American cars to take back with them. Somehow, I would always get caught in the middle of the barely English speaking Russians and a scum bag used car salesman. Those Russians sure loved them some Ford Explorers.

You never meet anyone from there, never hear about anything happening there, it’s never mentioned during elections or sporting events or anything culturally significant. Every other state has something unique or identifiable about it. What is the deal with Delaware?

Pretty sure I acknowledged Petdurskly,s (sic) Maryland roots. Are you on me for the misspelling or the political boundary?

Then where would Delaware Punch come from?



I remember killing some Delaware Punch and Brisk Iced Tea at the swimming pool of the country club we belonged to in the 90s. That was back when sugar was good for you and fat was bad.
