I've never been anywhere as boring as Williamsburg so you guys have to have something.
Carolyn's obviously never been to Milford, DE (my grandparents live there). ;) They don't even have a movie theater. And it's the third largest city in Delaware. Got to love the eastern shore.

Milford, well, yeah Milford is pretty dull. I'm lucky enough to have grandparents that live in Rehoboth Beach, DE and that's a different story. As for where I live, despite what Carolyn says about my stomping grounds, my friends always manage to scrounge up something to do. Creativity (and low standards!) are a big help.

Luckily Milford is just a quick trip from Rehobeth Beach. ;) In fact, I have tentative plans to go see my grandparents in a bit over a week and go to Rehobeth at least one day. :)

the town where i live is pathetic...which is why i spend as little time there as possible. of course i can take the t into boston so thats cool

EddieMcD 25-07-2001 15:18

Hmm... bowling alley. Haven't been there in a while. But usually if I do something like that, it's more competitive than social.

Tom Fairchild 25-07-2001 16:21

Matt - you're going to Rehoboth soon?? I'm going to be there Aug. 17th through 20th. Tell me how everything this. I haven't been there in years!

~Tom~

Carolyn Duncan 25-07-2001 22:14

There's plenty to do in "P-town" if you like to laugh at people. J/K. At least Poquoson is close to something. You know where I lived, there ain't nothin' there. Things are so boring there that people actually camped out a Chick-fil-A when it frist opened. How sad is that? Williamsburg's I dea of the beach is a sand trap next to a water hazard on one of the city's four golf courses. And hangin' out in front of W/D comparing red-neck mobiles. I could really go on for pages about the lame-o things people do due to boredom.

Yeah, I'm going to be there Aug 3-5 or so (we're staying with friends of the family in Milford). I get an extended Team Forum vacation. ;) I was last there, let me think, in April. We snuck out from my grandparent's 60th wedding anniversary party. Rehobeth hasn't changed all that amazingly much over the past 10 years or so except for the fact that it attracts many homosexuals now. Doesn't bother me personally but I know others who would have a problem with it. And just make sure to have some Grotto Pizza while there. :)

Tom Fairchild 26-07-2001 10:59

Grotto pizza??? Grotto pizza??? Nicola's, all the way man. ;)

~Tom~, who's going to knock it off because all the other people in this forum must be totally confused.

I have never in my life heard of Nicola's. I personally like Grotto so :-p.

Here's the secret... You can be competitive but be joking about it. It works, trust me. THat's what I do everytime I go somewhere like that. That is unless I go shoot pool, I just run the table...

EddieMcD 27-07-2001 13:18

Eh, pool's too easy. I'd do the same thing. Bowling alley might work though. Now all I need is a way to get out there...

Anymore helpful hints from anybody?

Got any siblings? Bribery works great, so I've been told, I have no siblings so I don't really know.
