The Storytellers Behind the Pen
Welcome to ‘Chronicles of Sussex County, Delaware’, a platform where tales of our beloved county come to life through the written word. Allow us to introduce ourselves – we are Sarah and Michael, born and raised in the heart of Sussex County. Our love for this charming county and our passion for storytelling led us to create this blog.
Our Journey Home
Sarah hails from the historic town of Lewes, a place steeped in maritime history and natural beauty. Growing up, she was enchanted by the tales of the sea and the tales of old, passed down through generations in her family. These stories ignited a deep love for storytelling within her, and as she explored the winding streets of Lewes, she envisioned sharing these stories with the world. On the other hand, Michael’s roots are firmly planted in the coastal community of Rehoboth Beach. His childhood was a blend of sandy beaches, salty breezes, and the excitement of the boardwalk. With a curious mind and a love for capturing moments, he discovered that words were his palette to paint the vibrant pictures of Sussex County that he held so dear.

Sarah and Michael often found themselves engrossed in conversations about the rich history, natural beauty, and evolving culture of Sussex County. They realized that their stories, experiences, and memories could offer a window into the soul of this enchanting county. Driven by a desire to preserve the essence of Sussex County and to provide a platform for locals and visitors alike to connect with its history and charm, they set out on this blogging adventure.
