We are in Cape May. This morning the weather is beautiful.
Miss Linda and I went to downtown Cape May last night to eat dinner. There is no inside dining. The whole downtown was packed with people 70% of which were not wearing masks. We saw a policeman on a bike and he wasn’t wearing a mask either. For the most part they were Social Distancing. In order to get a drink, you walk up to a hostess and order and pay. You then wait for someone to bring it out to you in a plastic cup with a taped on lid that says alcohol. you then have to go find a bench, no easy task, to sit and drink. We did meet some nice folks from Ohio though. They said that they both have recovered from the virus. They said that it wasn’t terrible and that it took less than two weeks to recover. They hadn’t been contacted yet to donate plasma.
Speaking of dinner. the place was so crowded that everywhere the wait was a minimum of an hour. It was unbelievable. Like downtown Frederick, they have put up tents everywhere.
Crab consumption has slowed a little the last two weeks. I am down to ordering 50 bushels. Well, that didn’t last long. Pete had to order 10 more bushels for today. Sometimes it is hard to judge. The other day, I got a message from someone wanting to know if we have Maryland Crabs. Obviously, someone is not familiar with the Pub. We only have Maryland Crabs.
One of our Buckeystown neighbors was at the Pub the other night. She was telling me that her son was flying in from Portland. She said that he was sick of seeing his city on fire every night. He also said that what you see on television isn’t even close as to what is actually happening. It is truly a shame that some people have to act that way. No respect for others. They will grow up someday.
You know it is really enjoyable to go to the Pub and see all the friendly faces enjoying good food, drink and MD Crabs. Our staff is excellent and the steamers are the best.
Unfortunately, there is no way that we can have any live music at the Pub. Consequently, we are cancelling the music for the rest of the season. It is really a heartbreak to have to do this but we have no choice.

The hurricane supposedly is coming up the coast. You know that it is just our luck that it is happening the week that we are at the beach. maybe we will get lucky and it will veer out to sea. Fat Chance.
