Ferry

Taken on the Cape May-Lewes Ferry on the road home from Canada several summers ago, by far one of the coolest parts of our trip. The ferry ride was a little more than an hour long and when we unloaded, we were less than 5 minutes from Cape Henlopen State Park where we stayed the night, camping and sleeping on the sand. The ranger was a super nice guy who drove a Corvette and also rode. After his shift, he came and found us and shot the breeze for a couple hours. He had lost a daughter to addiction and come out of retirement for this job just to keep himself occupied and his mind off his loss. We drank beer until very late into the night at which point he said his goodbyes and we were lulled to sleep by the sound of the nearby waves.
