Hello everyone! I'm not sure where I was supposed to post this so I hope this doesn't offend anyone being here. My family and I just finished settling over the long weekend and I'm hoping to find some new friends here. A little about me would I guess be the most noticeable thing that I have achondroplasia. In other words I'm a little person or a midget which doesn't bother me. My husband and two kids are all average height. This seems like a nice place so the thing that brought me to this forum was that my neighbor said anything you need go on this site. Buy,sell,forums,advice it's all here. So now that we're unpacked what do the locals do in the summer? I had a fantasy when we moved that I would be eating those famous crabs every day and was delighted to see people selling them on the side of the road! I guess that is safe?! But wow expensive. I thought they'd be like hot dog prices lol.
Welcome to the area, I posted some local activities recently to another member arriving soon. I will paste it in here and if you find an activity you or your family is interested in just ask and someone on the forum will tell you where to go or how to get signed up.
As a local, I can't imagine living any ware else. To be perfectly honest I have not traveled to too many places and because of the work I do most of the places I do go are in the middle of the desert so I don't have much in the way of comparisons. It might be useful to know if you or the family members moving with you have any hobbies and the people of the forum can make recommendations. There are leagues for most of the major sports (baseball, softball, basketball, bowling, football, soccer, roller hockey, volleyball, etc...) there is charter fishing, walking and biking trails, kayaking and boat rentals, golf, hunting, etc... The local crabs and rockfish is excellent along with other local food such as country sausage and stuffed ham. There are historical sites to explore and festivals throughout the year in Leonardtown and Lusby. I have heard some people from the city complain that there is never anything to do and I say that they are not looking hard enough. Welcome to the area, I hope you find it an enjoyable experience.
