Today on DelmarvaLife –
It’s the time of the year when the holiday shopping rush starts to set in. Maybe COVID-19 circumstances have you thinking you want to do all of your shopping online this year. If that’s your plan, leaders of a local bank say – you’ve got to be cautious. Credit card fraud issues are on the rise. Katie sat down with the Bank Manager of Provident State Bank in Lewes to find out what we need to know.
The birds on Delmarva are pretty spectacular. They’re a sense of calm in our lives. Maybe that’s why many people like to attract certain birds to their backyards – backyard birding is a growing hobby, especially since the pandemic set in.

One of the key ways to have a Holly Jolly Christmas? Start by spending Black Friday with Jolly Roger Amusement Parks. Katie learns about a world famous seasonal sale.
At the beginning of the show, we showed you a picture perfect sunset in Lewes. Sometimes, something as simple as catching with your camera or experiencing with your eyes a moment like this – can turn your whole day around. The beautiful moments like those are certainly worth celebrating. That’s why we do so every Friday in All That is Good.
