It seems that his new crush\, dancer Camilo Rodriguez\, has gone missing and they suspect foul play. What happened the night before? And where is Camilo? Fans of Carl Hiaasen and Armistead Maupin will enjoy this first book in the Hayden & Friends Series\, which features a rainbow cast of “kick-ass” amateur sleuths. \nAside from fiction writing\, Rob Osler is a halfway decent tennis player\, proficient at making chicken piccata and crab cakes\, and threatens to restart playing bridge and the banjo—though not at the same time. He attended college in Washington\, where he also earned a master’s degree in business. After many years of living in Seattle and San Francisco\, he resides in southern California with his long-time partner and a tall\, gray cat. \nWe invite you to support the author by purchasing a copy of their book from Browseabout Books by clicking HERE.

SUMMARY:CHSP Borrow a Bike\, Enjoy Cycling the Park to Warm Up on Winter Days!
DESCRIPTION:Winter Opening Hours  start November 1st\,  for the Bike Barn and\nNature Center:  Wednesday  thru Sunday ( closed  on Mondays & Tuesdays) 10am – 3pm  for the Barn\, 10am – 4pm Nature Center   Bikes can be borrowed for up to 2 hours weather permitting\, with last bikes out at 2 pm.  All bikes must be returned to the Bike Barn by 2:45 pm.\n We will be enforcing new procedures to ensure safety for our Bike Barn volunteers and visitors. This will include restricting access to the Bike Barn buildings – visitors will pick up and return bikes and helmets outside the Bike Barn.\n\n\nWe provide free loaner bikes…\nOne of the most popular activities provided by FOCHSP is” Borrow-a-Bike”. Here people can borrow a bike to ride within the park and see the sights for up to 2 hours…at no charge! That said\, we do gladly accept all donations to help us offset the cost of new bikes\, helmets and maintenance.  There is a  secure donation box  on the left front of the Barn.\nSince its start in 1997\, Borrow-a-Bike has always been operated entirely by volunteers and funded by donations. In 2014\, bikes were borrowed by around  13\,000 people and  that number  continues to  grow\, reaching more than 14\,000 in 2019\n \nBorrowers must complete the form provided inside the Nature Center and leave a photo-ID there for up to 5 riders\, prior to picking up bikes. \n Groups larger than 10 must  email or  call us ahead of time to schedule your  requirements  –  FOCHSP@gmail.com   302-858-6127 \n\nAll riders under 18 must wear helmets.\nOrange cones will be placed at 6-foot intervals; groups must stay at the next available cone until it is their turn to pick up bikes.\nBikes will be available for pickup at the bike racks located between the Nature Center and Bike Barn.\nBikes and helmets are to be returned on the opposite side of the Bike Barn.\nBikes must stay on trails and in the Park at all times\nBikes must be returned within 2 hours\, but no later than 2:45 p.m.\nPlease check back here regularly as days and hours of operation may be subject to change\n\n\nFind more great park info: https://destateparks.com/Beaches/CapeHenlopen\nThe Story of Borrow-A- Bike \nThe Borrow-A-Bike program began with a plan in 1997 and has always been operated by volunteers. In 1999\, a $3\,000 grant from The Delaware Bicycle Council enabled the purchase of 15 bikes that were housed in a shed built by the Lion’s Club. Additional donations — including $1\,000 from Dupont — increased the program to 35 bicycles operated from a new shed supplied by the Friends. The current “Bike Barn”  which stands next to the Nature Center was built from scratch in 2009 by Friends volunteers under the leadership of Stan Lemiska\, Chuck Moore\, and Carl Lofgren. Today\, the program includes  more than 40 adult  bicycles\, including 2 with baby carriers\, 12 children’s bicycles\, and  2 double baby trailers.  Due to the  popularity of the program a second  Bike Barn has recently  been built  behind the existing one. This will also  free up much needed space  for the ongoing maintenance  and repairs of the bikes. \nInterested in Volunteering?  \nWe always need  volunteers to  act as “ambassadors”  who help  our visitors select the right bike for their needs\, and/or  as mechanics to service and make running repairs  to our fleet.   If you would like to volunteer and want to know more about what is involved  please stop by the Barn  which is next to the Nature Center anytime we are open \,  or  go to “contact us” on this site and   call or email us.  You will receive a very warm welcome to our group for however much or little time you are able to give.\n​Info and pics from Friends of CHSP website

SUMMARY:Self-Guided Tours: Nassau Valley Vineyards
DESCRIPTION:“Self-guided tours and wine tastings are available during our operational hours. Self-guided tours are free. Tasting is $10 per person and includes your tasting glass as a take-home. As per Delaware law\, we may not pour tastings within the last 15 minutes of operation. Just like “last call” at a bar\, you must be underway with tasting. In other words – if you show up at 10 minutes to closing we\, legally\, cannot pour any product for you. Last call for all tastings is at 4:30! You must be in the door by this time in order to be served! Children are always welcomed at NVV but you must be 21 to TASTE or buy. No exceptions. We understand that people travel as a family but please remember that wine tasting is an adult activity. By law\, children may not stand nor sit at or near any service counter. \nCONTACT: 302.645.9463 \n \nAbout Our Tour:  \nNVV boasts one of the most unique winery tours in North America. Our five gallery self-guided museum chronicles everything from the incredible 8\,000-year history of wine to how the vineyard grows in the modern day. \nDid You Know That … \n\nThe Egyptian’s invented the wine press?\nOr that It takes 16 lbs of fruit to make 1 gallon of wine?\nThe origin of the cultivated grapevine was Mesopotamia and not Italy?\nWine has been used as a medicine for countless centuries?\nIt takes at least 15 leaves to ripen one cluster of fruit?\n\nThese are just a few of the things you’ll learn on our tour surrounded by beautiful photographs\, illustrations\, and unique artifacts. Of course\, you can also see the processing equipment if you want to. But that’s what you see at every other winery in the country (yawn). \nThe first exhibit gallery of the tour also houses our art gallery space. Each month a new exhibit features the work of regional artists covering all genres from watercolor and oil paintings to photography and sculpture. A “Meet The Artist” reception is held at the beginning of the show and is always open to the public. \nClosed Dates / Hours of Operation\nWe are open\, year-round\, Tuesday thru Sunday from 11AM to 5PM. \nMondays (April through December) from 11AM to 5PM. \nFrom January through the beginning of April\, we are closed on Monday. \nWe are closed Thanksgiving Day\, Christmas Day\, New Years Day\, Easter Sunday and Election Day (general elections). \nWeekends are extremely busy\nAll customers are taken on a first-come\, first serve basis. We no longer accept reservations for groups on weekends. Any group of 6 or more must call ahead. CONTACT: 302.645.9463 \nGroup tours for 15+ can book for a personal tour on a Tuesday-Thursday during the winter months.” – https://www.nassauvalley.com/tours-tasting/

SUMMARY:Solo Exhibition by Dane Tilghman\,  Peninsula Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Artist reception on February 12 from 5 – 6:30pm \n\nSolo Exhibition by Dane Tilghman\n\n\nAfrican American life inspired by historical scenes\n\n\nFebruary 12th – March 27th\n\n\nView The Show\n\n\nWorks are available for purchase as soon as they are posted. SEE WORKS\n\n\n\n“We are thrilled to welcome back acclaimed artist\, Dane Tilghman\, for another solo exhibition. Dane is a premier painter of African American culture\, whose work is in numerous universities and major sports arenas\, in addition to being collected by celebrities like Nelson Mandela. \nFor the third year in a row\, Dane brings his larger-than-life artwork to our walls\, giving the people of Lewes the opportunity to bask in the grandeur of his impressionist-style paintings. \nThe ethos of Dane’s work is to bring awareness and attention to the lost history of African American communities throughout the US. Dane embraces an extravagant style and color palette to make Black life and culture from the early 20th Century the centerpiece of artistic admiration. He isn’t confined by artistic rules or forms\, opting to combine qualities of cubism\, impressionism\, and realism with palette knife work and various mediums to create textural pieces that come to life on the canvases. \nHis powerful\, yet poignant\, works remind viewers of the importance of a caring society for people of all color and creed\, not only in history but in the present and the future. \nDane Tilghman grew up in West Chester\, PA and has been a professional artist for nearly 40 years. His family was originally from Tilghman Island in the Chesapeake Bay before migrating to Dover and finally settling in Pennsylvania. \nHe is inspired by historic black and white images\, transforming a once static and unidimensional photograph into a vibrant and profound painting. For this show\, Dane and Tony Boyd-Heron\, Peninsula Gallery’s exhibition curator and co-owner\, visited the Delaware Archives to find photographs depicting Black life from the early 1900s. Tony said of the experience\, “we were disappointed by the little material showing the candid life and spirit of the African American communities in the archive.” \nDane says\, “Black people played just as much a role in the life-blood of Delaware as anywhere else. The working-class individuals depicted in my work\, whether they be working on the sea or on a farm\, were family-oriented; they had a purpose and were here to make a mark — even if that was just to make sure there was food on their table. But I believe everybody has a purpose. These individuals probably didn’t think they would be immortalized on canvas\, but they lived and served history just like anyone else.” \nA reception will be held on Saturday\, February 12\, from 5 to 6:30 pm\, and attendees will have the opportunity to mingle with Dane during the evening. Please note\, due to the rise in COVID-19 cases\, we will be requiring timed entry for the reception. Call (302) 645-0551 or email peninsulagallery1@gmail.com to reserve a time slot.\n\n\n
