“Twas just before Christmas, all the lights were ablaze,
They were heading to Chincoteague for the Christmas Parade.
Momma was packed and so was her spouse,
The family was coming. They needed a house!
Their puppy was with them and grandchildren (two).
They needed three bedrooms and two bathrooms too!
Santa could help them! They were on his good list.
So they sent him a message, “Which house should we pick?”
He offered to fly down and give his advice.
His sleigh was packed up and ready for flight.
He called for his ponies…the sleigh they would pull!
His mission was critical, “Alert NASA too!”
“Now Riptide! Now Thunderbolt! Now Blue Moon and Prince!
On Beach Baby, On Black Pearl, on Maverick and Ace!
As rapid as eagles, his courser’s did fly.
He picked up the family, and took to the sky.
At T’s corner, a turn they did make.
They flew over Wallops, to the Creamery for a break.
They trotted up Maddox, ‘round the circle to the right.
On Cedar Drive, they found Slack Tide, their home for the night.
They thanked Santa warmly…the home was a gem.
His, “No thanks necessary!”, came as he parted from them.
I heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight,
“Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night!”

Good morning Slack Tide friends,
Happy New Year! Slack Tide has been busy over the winter getting ready for our guests in 2024.
We’ve renovated the entire living room side of the house. New flooring, paint, furniture and fixtures. We’ve added a walk in “couples” shower to the bathroom and much more. This completes the total renovation of the house that we began last year. Pictures will be posted soon.
As always, we are dog friendly with a fenced yard and beautiful natural surroundings. Make your reservations early, at Seaside Vacations, we’d love to see you back at Slack Tide - Chincoteague Island, VA in 2024.

“The Great September Gust”
On this date September 3, 1821 the most destructive recorded hurricane struck the Eastern shore of Virginia. A description given in Scribner’s Monthly said island inhabitants saw the Atlantic Ocean recede southward showing miles of sandbars then a dull roar followed and suddenly a mass of wind and rain and salt spray leapt upon them. Half of Assateague was a waste of seething foam and tossing pine trunks, then the unbroken mass swept across the south end of Chincoteague carrying away men, women and some ponies. Five persons lost their lives in the title wave and one man named Andrews lost his wife and children, but was himself spared because the water levels left him hanging by his waistband in a tree 20 feet up in the air. Another man, Hickman was said to be swept away from Chincoteague and carried to Swan’s Gut Creek 6 miles away on the mainland. The hurricane continued up the Atlantic Coast wreaking havoc and was later to be named the 1821 Norfolk and Long Island Hurricane but around Chincoteague it was known as The Great September Gust!

This tremendous storm will be seen again in the Before the Lighthouse movie.
