Can you tell me more of what you might look to do? Rehoboth does have a lot to offer, but it will be crowded. Other things nearby, if you don't mind mini road trips. So we were in Rehoboth last fall so not too worried if we don’t go in much to avoid crowds. We like to explore. Last year we enjoyed the Lifeguard museum and enjoyed it. Also took a trip up to Dover for the Victoria museum. We had wanted to do some Kayaking if possible. And would you recommend taking the ferry to Cape May? We like museums and nature. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris78 Posted Saturday at 12:08 AM Share Posted Saturday at 12:08 AM 21 hours ago, Maestrobjwa said: Because of Elias/Sig philosophy. Their overuse of analytics, and not enough focus on fundamentals and actually having a winning mindset throughout the organization (major and minors) is a big problem. The fact that Cal has stepped in and become more involved in development is another clue that the problem runs deeper than the players. See, it's become readily apparent how mentally messed up these players are. They are clearly thinking way too much...and I wonder if they are being choked by the analytics. Adley said something a couple months ago about his improvement this year. He said "Simple thoughts at the plate". Where did the complication come from? Holliday's improvements (before the injury--he's pretty much been in spring training mode up until now) came from his dad. The young players clearly had the talent coming up through the minors; there is no way they all simply fail in the same manner unless there is a deeper problem. See, Elias may be all numbers and computers when it comes to the talent he has brought up--and these players simply don't know how to win. We have seen their talent: we see the flashes of it--but of course it's inconsistent. But this inconsistency is not just one player; it's the whole team. How does an entire team, both younger players and veterans, fail in the exact same way 2.5 years in a row? How is the defense of the entire team this awful? How is this out third set of hitting coaches in 4 years, and a new manager, yet the same problem? You have to look at the top. They could be micromanaging things into oblivion. Elias has been pretty good at spotting talent--particularly the bats. But what if...he simply relies on the analytics and kinda just leaves them out there...and did not instill a culture of knowing how to win? That flawed approach would translate into coaches and other personel having all the analytics in the world but no fundamentals, no "this is how you need to play to win". The "Oriole Way" has been missing for several years. When you say how is the defense this bad and we're on the 3rd set of hitting coaches in 4 years , it definitely sounds like it the players and the person who chose said players .

And would you recommend taking the ferry to Cape May? We like museums and nature. The ferry is a great experience! And cape May is a fun little town, almost like a mirror to Lewes. Lots of beautiful Victorian beach houses and hotels, and I think there is a trolley tour of them. A small boardwalk with a few restaurants too. It's been years, but we had lunch at a Stewart's (like the root beer) that was inside a old bank. We are in the vault! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to kayak, I would recommend trap pond or killens pond, both state parks. Killens also has a small water park that is actually very nice with a just redone pool. Admission is like $12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted yesterday at 12:41 AM Share Posted yesterday at 12:41 AM This team just won 4 consecutive games for the first time this season, and are still 5 games under 500. Sure the AL sucks ass but they have not demonstrated the ability to go on a run to get them to/over the 500 mark. They will probably start the second half with a mediocre addition or 2 and proceed to lose 3 or 4 in a row. No reason to believe otherwise.

Jebman Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago West of Buda, Texas and also to the east over Houston, have just been drowned so bad by rain. Many communities east and west of us have had 12 inches plus with another 10 to 20 additional inches expected over the next 48 hours. I don't think Buda itself will see much. We've seen 2.2 inches locally with this storm cycle. That puts me at 30.6 inches for the year. This Nino is strong and will pound us with rains this autumn and winter and on into Spring 2027. The same aforementioned super Nino will BURY the entire DMV Region, including Washington DC, in extremely deep snows during late Dec 2026, Jan, Feb and March 2027. The Mid Atlantic Region WILL resemble Mammoth Ski Resort at times. West and east of us will see downright catastrophic impacts in the next 2 days. Hopefully we will continue to get missed. I am quite tired of weeding. Weeding weeds is my job and I am already weary of it. These are most emphatically not the same conditions I was living under in N Virginia from 1970 to 2018 lol. If you are along Highway 281 in central Texas, you might want to get away from low lying areas. That region is highlighted for more than a foot of additional rain just between now and 8am Wednesday. 899 FXUS64 KEWX 141834 AFDEWX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX 134 PM CDT Tue Jul 14 2026 ...New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 130 PM CDT Tue Jul 14 2026 - Intense rain rates and compounding effects from multiple rounds of storms will result in a dangerous flash flooding threat through Thursday. - Considerable to locally catastrophic impacts from flash flooding are likely for portions of the U.S. 90 corridor west of San Antonio, including the southern Edwards Plateau and Rio Grande. - Pockets of an additional 10 to 20 inches of rain are possible within the highest risk areas, with broader totals of 2 to 6 inches. - Potential for significant downstream river flooding in the Pecos, Rio Grande, Nueces, Frio, Medina, and San Antonio river basins. - Heed instructions from local officials and be prepared to seek higher ground if necessary. && .SHORT TERM... (Tonight through Wednesday night) Issued at 130 PM CDT Tue Jul 14 2026 A significant threat of torrential rainfall, significant flash flooding, and downstream river rises continues tonight. There is a High Risk (the highest risk category, Level 4 of 4) of heavy rain capable of causing flash flooding along the southern Edwards Plateau and throughout the Highway 90 corridor west of San Antonio. Considerable to locally catastrophic flash flooding is possible for these areas. Significant downstream river flooding to Moderate or Major flood stages will be possible. A Flood Watch highlighting the potential for life-threatening flash flooding remains in effect from now into Thursday evening for the southern Edwards Plateau, Rio Grande, Winter Garden region, Hill Country, and I-35 corridor. While the High Risk region delineates the area of greatest concern, heavy rain will be capable of causing flash flooding anywhere within the broader watch area. As of noon Tuesday, up to a foot of rain has fallen in portions of these areas, with the heaviest rains so far impacting Bandera, Medina, and Uvalde counties. On top of these already considerable amounts, another round torrential downpours is expected tonight. The most persistent storms may produce over a foot of rain tonight into Wednesday (between 10 and 20 inches) with extreme rain rates exceeding 3 or 4 inches per hour at times. The southern Edwards Plateau, western Hill Country, and Rio Grande Plains are at greatest risk for significant additional rainfall. This could occur over the same areas hardest hit from rains last night and this morning. Rivers, creeks, and arroyos can rise suddenly and rapidly! Locally dry conditions near creeks and rivers should not be treated as a guarantee of your safety! Heed warnings, instructions from local and county officials, and avoid unnecessary travel. Flash flooding can be impossible to spot at night. Make sure you have multiple reliable ways to receive warnings. If you are in a low-lying location or near a stream, have a plan and have a route to reach higher ground if needed. This morning`s upper-air sounding at Del Rio reported a precipitable water of 2.26 inches, above the 99th percentile of atmospheric moisture for mid-July. We expect similarly anomalous moisture to continue to be available for new storms to draw in. An stationary front at the surface and aloft is draped across the area, concentrating moisture over our region. A mesoscale convective vortex (MCV) is evident in radar imagery over the southern Edwards Plateau and Rio Grande Plains, embedded within this area of elevated moisture. This will be a primary trigger for heavy rain. Additional rainfall is also ongoing throughout Central Texas accompanying the broader band of convergence. While scattering and somewhat lowered intensity of rains is anticipated and ongoing this afternoon over South-Central Texas as low-level winds weaken, the low-level jet is expected to intensify this evening with the HREF mean guidance showing winds at 850mb becoming 10-15 kt stronger than this morning. This will likely reinvigorate and concentrate torrential rainbands around the MCV tonight, and this looks to be the primary mechanism for flooding rainfall concerns. The heaviest rainfall will likely be near the center and along the south to eastern flanks of the disturbance. Most of the high- resolution models position the center of MCV near the Rio Grande tonight. This places the southern Edwards Plateau, western Hill Country, and Rio Grande Plains at greatest risk for exceptional amounts of additional rainfall capable of causing significant flash flooding. Intense bands of slow-moving torrential rainfall may persist late tonight through Wednesday morning. Some decrease in activity is possible Wednesday afternoon, with more spread out/lighter rainfall consistent with the usual diurnal behavior of MCVs. However, regional models show a continued zone of high humidity in the low and mid-levels, and the MCV or related areas of concentrated vorticity are will likely be present heading into Wednesday night. The low-level jet is also forecast to be even stronger Wednesday night... around 30-35 kt from the Rio Grande Plains to Edwards Plateau. This means that Wednesday evening/night into Thursday morning will likely be another timeframe for torrential rainfall over these areas. The precise area of heaviest rain will depend on where the MCV is located and orientation of the LLJ. Most models show some westward shift as the MCV slides slightly north and west in response to the strong ridging over the northern tier of CONUS. Regardless, there could be considerable overlap with areas already impacted by prolific rainfall, resulting in a heightened risk for considerable to locally catastrophic flash flooding. The greatest threat Wednesday into Thursday morning will again be along the Highway 90 corridor west of San Antonio and southern Edwards Plateau, with a round of extreme rain amounts possible. This will likely add to elevated streamflows and prolong or exacerbate downstream rises and impacts in rivers. The currently active Flood Watch extends into Thursday evening. Total rainfall amounts from this week`s heavy rain event may end up amounting to over half of the normal annual rain total for some locations. Conditions can change drastically and suddenly. Have multiple reliable ways to recieve warnings and information from local/state officials both in the daytime and at night. && Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
