r/Delaware

Good afternoon fine people.
Front-runners from online research shows it's a battle between Verizon FIOS and XFinity. Not had either of them before wherever I've lived.
Anyone got a good take on who comes out on top in terms of value/service etc ?
Thanks :)

Does anyone know a reputable contractor that serves NCC and can build me a deck? So far I’ve gotten in touch with a few and not a lot of responses, a ghosted appointment, and not much else. I’m not looking for anything like financing or a complex project. I just want a deck. Help?!?

Are there any places or buildings that have ghost hunts in Delaware besides Fort Delaware? Even if it’s a house you can rent out for a night. Even a ghost tour. Sick of driving to PA to do them.

Is the traffic driving in and out of Rehoboth always that bad? It’s been years since going back, but man, that was some of the worst I’ve ever experienced. I live in NOVA, so I get it. But this was by far the worst. Is this common during the summer months?

I’ve been fishing at Lums pond for a while and I keep catching small bass. I’d like to know where the big boys are at.

Does anybody have a good recommendation for a place to board my two dogs? It doesn't necessarily need to be in NCC but that would be ideal. My one dog is a bit older and neither of them have ever been boarded. I'm still not sure that I'm going to go the boarding route but wanted to see if anyone here had a good suggestion. Thanks!

Hello! I’m traveling to Bethany next week and have recently been playing more pool and was wondering if anyone knew of any spots that have pool tables in Bethany? Also willing to travel to fenwick or rehoboth or Dewey if need be. I go to Bethany every year but can’t think of any spots off the top of my head. Thanks in advance!

As a restaurant owner who has tried only one bakery for our wholesaled baked goods I'm reaching out to see what other good options are.

What I value:

Quality

Price

Flexibility

I'm happy to pay a higher price for consistency and quality if it is warranted.

Whatcha got?

I regularly visit DE beaches, but over the years I’ve seen fewer and fewer Delaware license plates when I’ve been out and about. For example, yesterday I was at the South Inlet beach, which has a couple hundred parking spaces. Looking for a parking space, I drove down each and every row and counted only four cars with DE plates. Nearly all the cars had PA plates. Being a native Delawarean, why are we not visiting DE beaches?

>In a statement July 5, she said the safety and well-being of horses, jockeys, staff and guests are their highest priority. The park canceled races on Thursday, July 2, and Friday, July 3, in response to the oppressive heat wave gripping the region. Race times were moved to the morning to avoid the worst of the heat. Wilmington experienced record-breaking heat July 4, reaching 102 degrees shortly after 4 p.m., according to data from the National Weather Service.

I was there on the 4th for a different event but happened to be outside when I saw the horse go down, it was heartbreaking. They should have never ran those races in that heat yesterday...

Also is it just Xfinity or multiple providers? My work and multiple others are not able to take credit cards currently due to it, it’s a nightmare.

What’s going on around Milton saw like 30 troopers, helicopter, swat teams in a neighborhood off rte 1.

U.S. power grid operator PJM, the nation's largest covering much of the East Coast and Midwest, on Friday ordered customers in emergency alert to curb their use, as it battled generator outages, overloaded transmission lines and surging air-conditioning demand during a prolonged heat wave.

PJM Interconnection, which manages the electricity system serving 67 million people in 13 states and the District of Columbia, has issued emergency energy alerts amid expectations that hot summer weather will drive up power demand.

The 13 states are Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia.

Does anyone know what happened with the fireworks. That show was completely fucked over and seemed like the timing was bad. That first set scared the entire front line away…felt like I was in Call Of Duty.
