Charlie Paparella harbors thoughts on the Wicomico’s nautical nooks

WICOMICO COUNTY, Md. – In this week’s edition of Back on the Road with Charlie Paparella, brought to you by Furniture & More Gone Coastal, Charlie shares his thoughts during a visit to Mount Vernon Harbor.

To “harbor” something is to provide protection, and Charlie said the oldest harbors on Delmarva have given shelter to boats and sailors for more than two centuries now. And, at the old Mount Vernon Harbor, you can watch the clouds from approaching storms and view the tide on its endless journey. 

“You can watch the lines draw up and slack, keeping boats in their slips,” Charlie observed. “And sometimes you can hear celestial music in the air; it seems to be coming from the wind in the trees.”
