Will White finds happiness at the delta of trade, art and family
Will White, 28, is the social one, chatting it up or telling stories with clients aboard his Easton-based, Tilghman-bred Kinnamon, Shore Feels Right. Will is the one who will remember the expression of the toothless seven-year-old from Baltimore who caught a fish, before he will remember the fish. While Will entertains, one of his brothers, Adam, 22, or Matt, 25, pilots. Owning a fishing charter seems like a dream, but with earthly rewards of an honest living and cooler full

Finding Nature and Solitude on Kent County’s Waterways
A quiet bit of water in a lush and unspoiled setting offers a paddler a sense of solitude and wonder. In Kent County, three paddles on three different waterways offer such experiences. These rivers and creeks offer an array of Chesapeake Bay watershed habitat—from coves studded with brilliant starbursts of American lotus to the deep shade of graveled-bottomed headwaters. They teem with birds, fish, muskrat and tiny jewel-like damselflies. Although each is easily accessible by

Enchanted Waters: Striking a Pose and Finding Your Flow on the Chesapeake Bay
One thing about humans: we’re innovative. We seek to make life more pleasant, more exciting, and we find new ways to enjoy favorite activities, combining elements where necessary. Take paddle board yoga, for example. Both practices were developed thousands of years ago; paddle boarding widely is thought to have originated with Peruvian fishermen 2,000 years ago out of practical necessity, according to several stand up paddle boarding websites and online journals; and yoga, ac

Local Flavors: Homemade Ice Cream on the Shore
Nothing says summer like ice cream, and no other ice cream compares to homemade ice cream. Made at home, it’s fresh, messy and fun. But if making it yourself seems like too much work, homemade ice cream is available within a short drive — or, with luck — a short walk. Scottish Highland Creamery 1319, 314 Tilghman St, Oxford, MD Founded by Victor and Susan Barlow, the Scottish Highland Creamery is located on the water in Oxford. They use the “freshest, finest ingredients avail

Posh Pool Party
Whether lounging away from the sun, or sneaking out for a midnight plunge, this posh poolside pad provides the perfect party place Nothing cancels backyard pool parties faster than an impending storm, but with a modern pool house, inclement weather no longer drowns out outdoor ambitions. In the same manner that the iconic Ford F-150 pickup truck debuted in 1985 (at $7,500) and has since skyrocketed to become Ford’s flagship vehicle (a living room on wheels costing upwards of

High Spirits: Tequila bar at El Jefe
La bebida de lo del corazón salvaje In the spring of 1993, I took a trip with six college roommates to Daytona Beach. We stayed at the Howard Johnson’s, a sky rise that towered at least six stories over the broad, hard-packed, car-lined beach. Jimmy Buffet even played one day for the mob of half-dressed college kids that crammed the concrete pool deck. Daring co-eds on plastic-slatted lounge chairs slurped shots of Cuervo off strangers’ stomachs, preceded by a lick of table s

Art in the Yard: Jan Kirsh’s Garden Creations
Atop a pillar at the end of a private lane in Bozman sits a bright red pepper. It’s shiny and curled upward, almost as if it is waving a welcome. Come in, it says to visitors, I have delightful secrets. Further down the lane, giant stalks of aqua, indigo and green asparagus nod toward one another as if confiding secrets. Just across from them, a lone purple artichoke coolly rests atop another pillar. Sculptures of round, luscious fruits and vegetables live in many spots all o
