USA Today's Best Coastal Small Towns Includes A Delaware Beach Hot Spot
Is it Summer yet? Not quite, but we are getting closer. The days of an orange crush in hand, some Thrashers fries and walks along the boardwalk are approaching, and, we cannot wait!
It's always nice to have our little state recognized, when we seem to be forgotten by the rest of the country. Insert 'Wayne's World' clip.

“Rehoboth has it all,” says 10Best contributor Marla Cimini, including “awesome beaches, a fun boardwalk, many excellent restaurants and an array of things to do.”

50 States Ranked by Generosity When Tipping at Restaurants
Unlike Europe, the United States of America requires diners to tip their service for taking care of them. It's how they make their money. Everyone has to do it, although some people will just not... Nowadays, gratuity is sometimes automatically charged for you, but most of the time it is up to your own discretion to tip. This rule applies across all 50 states. So which ones are really the most generous and which are the least? The list ranks top to bottom, from least generous to most generous.
