Moving From Nevada to Denton, Maryland , I Hope to make Friends

I couldn't do it

lol…. Nope….

That will be quite the change. Too many people for my tastes.

Different thinking in that part of the country.

That part isn't as bad as most of the People's Republic of Maryland. There's actually regular people that live around there.

reconsider.

Even regular people make me jumpy if there gets to be more than one every couple of sections

About 5,000 people there. About 840 per square mile. They are kind of folksy is those parts.

That area is actually really kinda nice up around Centerville. Big deer country up that way. I liked that area when we first looked down here but the wife wanted more coastal. Definitely not like over the bridge. West of the Bay Bridge unfortunately rules the state politics but the Eastern Shore is a different animal.

You can likely hunt Sika deer in Maryland. A friend of mine had to live in Maryland for work and Sikas were thick in the area he lived and not scared of people.

Keith

840 per section???? Where do u run ur cows

I was born in Philadelphia I think I can adapt , Lol

Maybe so but why would u want to

Philly and Denton are two completely different places.

Foundryman, you’ll be 20 minutes or so from me.

Welcome to the neighborhood, glad to have you.

Thank you Rob

Denton is ok . . . it's Maryland that SUX with politics! . . . ALL Democrats except ONE Republican Congressman on Eastern Shore! :-((((((((((((

Just a touch south of him but yeah, lots of sika deer.

They run off during hunting season. Marsh ghost or whatever they call them. Bring hip boots or waders and lots and lots of bug repellent. And a bug suit. Probably a thermacell wouldn’t hurt.

Tasty little critter, about the size of a medium lab.

Y ?

The desert is awesome

Yeah Y? Glad for you but..............

For the love of god, WHY would you want be anywhere in the east? I can’t say I’m fond of anywhere in the lesser 48, but anything east of the dakotas sounds super crowded. I need miles of elbow room

Glad y’all feel that way.

Foundryman, be sure to close the door when you get here, don’t need any extra folks.


The Delmarva Peninsula is full and terrible.

Yeah, super crowded and terrible here.

On purpose?

839 too many 838 if she good lookn

She ain’t good looking. Best not visit

Maryland huh? Don't know much about Maryland. They got western bobcats?

No bobcats.

You'll do fine.
Half the Eastern Shoremen around there are from PA, lol

Especially during hunting season.

You got that right! To many people and too many political issues and extremes. I'm with ya need lots of elbow room also, I would feel like a cat in a cage there.

This is very,very true! I have to stepdaughters both born and raised here in Central MI but one lives in Baltimore MD. Absolutely a terrible place that seems to have snobs crawl out of the woodwork and any white person from the Midwest is a hillbilly to them. I think the biggest thing I see in the East-coasters is a fear of outsiders and a fear of being away from their clics. I’ve asked her quite a few times in the last 30 years how she lost her Midwest common sense and bearings? No answer! LOL. Her biggest fear driving to visit is afraid the Michigan Militia will waylay them! This is a no-chitter by golly!
We make sure she gets a good dose of the Jesse Kelly radio show ever evening and she never leaves the room! LOL

Humidity!

Sounds like you already have one potential friend in Delaware Rob and bet you can make some more

Definitely going to be a bunch of changes moving from Nevada though I would expect

If you get a chance got to the Maryland Trappers convention first weekend in August. Friday night they put on a crab /roast beef feed. Great people!! Great event

Can't blanket state east coasters, We're not afraid of anything, just don't like the new comers...it's not all cities, but they're getting closer.

The Eastern Shore is nothing like over the bridge. Night and day. If the Shore could secede it would lol. Over the bridge can have Salisbury and Cambridge… and we could throw in Pocomoke for good measure.

Went down to the Inter Harbor for 4th of July fireworks some years ago. Dang rats were running everywhere. Running between our legs and I watched several times rats running over baby/kids blankets. One year for the little grandkids I bought one of those huge pumpkins to take out to them for Halloween. I’m sure it weighed over100lbs and over 3’ wide. It was a big deal for the kids but on the 2nd night out on the front porch the family got to watch 2 black guys hauling the big arse pumpkin down the sidewalk! There’s no winning in a big city!

Baltimore is the only part of Maryland I know and that’s more than enough for me just like Deeetroit is to Michigan, whole different world!

Solid plan, y’all can join us and we will give everything north of the canal to who ever wants it.

We can annex Eastern Shore of VA and just call the new state The Shore or just New Delmarva.

Those folks on the other side of the bridge are nothing like the Eastern Shore.

Where you from?
See my earlier reply.

Ocean City as well. Everything he said.




Don't forget...you will need a boat. A skiff will do well up there, head of the Choptank River but still tidal.

I’m down around Public Landing. Love it here.

Think steamed crabs and red fox... you're gonna love your governor...

Heck yeah! That’s how we do! And the occasional muskrat eating competition.

Im sorry!

Thanks for the Support

Thanks for the Support

Thanks for the Support

Thanks for the Support

Don’t listen to the haters. Some have never been to the Eastern Shore and the rest are referring to Baltimore. lol


As Morgan said, you’ll need a boat. The Choptank River will be close as heck to you, and is a decent fishing spot.

I live in Ridgely, 5 miles from Denton. Maryland is having a convention on Aug 1st and 2nd. Can you get here in time to attend?

Is it at the same fairgrounds again Roger?

https://marylandfurtrappers.org/


I don’t see it on the webpage.

…. Now there’s a man that’s thankful for support lol

Settlement is July 31

Please don’t tell these guys how much you like it once you move here lol. You’ll do just fine. Had friends from college come visit , from all over the country. They all say how they didn’t know this part of MD existed. Plenty of vast farmland, great deer-waterfowl-turkey hunting, good trapping both water and land, great fishing both fresh and salt. I’m down near mud on the lower eastern shore, you’ll be north of me about 85 miles. PM me if you’d like

Yeah, it’s terrible

My thoughts exactly! The change in trapping opportunity has to be huge! Plus the politics!

It's the politics going to run me off.
Outdoors wise, lots of varied opportunities.

I can trap fisher 2.5 hrs west, catch bluefin 2.5 hrs east.
I'm fairly insulated from most nonsense, but state level politics, well....

No, I meant, where are you FROM?

DelawareRob - yes , same place. Look under events.

I’ve continued to follow this thread and can say that yes, Baltimore is similar to Dereetroit MI, a chithole of a city where people live like rats! But I didn’t just drop out of the sky to get to Baltimore, I spent time in the State of MD. No where did I travel or stop did I feel like I wasn't being snobbed or high-hatted!! Must have been my voice eh that gave me away? Like my son-in-law says, “you Midwesterner's are nothing more than a bunch of FN hillbillies” and I very much resent that big time!!

Back in the late 90’s I was on a caribou hunt in Labrador and I stayed with 3 guys from MD for a couple of days in a halfway house before they could fly us out and they weren’t from Baltimore rather from outside . I leant 2 things, MD deer hunters can shoot a chitload of deer, something like 40+ a year on a license AND they weren’t from Baltimore and they were sanctimonious A-holes! LOL

You can BS a non-MD resident but you can’t BS a real Midwesterner- BS’er that has walked the walk!! It’s the same as trying to gaslight a person that has experienced it and seen it up close and personal and someone trys to spread frosting on it!

Yes, can shoot a ton of deer, and if you hunt certain counties there is no limit to the amount of antlerless deer you can shoot.

Yes, there a whole ton of sanctimonious a-holes all over Maryland. No shortage anywhere in the whole country really.

Yes, perhaps I was a little to broad-brushing the State of MD for which a give a small, yet sincere apology!
