Danger on Delmarva

Dated Danger: Delmar Fires


Listen Later

Today we will explore the history of a little town named Delmar, which is both in Maryland and in Delaware.  It’s history shows the people of the town were resilient and strong, but it also shows how sometimes complacency can build up to a disastrous end, and how you need to see the big picture and look at the needs that you not only have today, but what you will need to continue to thrive.
