Easton Map and History
The County Seat of Talbot County. Established around early religious settlements and a court of law, Historic Downtown Easton is today a centerpiece of fine specialty shops, business and cultural activities, unique restaurants, and architectural fascination. Treelined streets are graced with various period structures and remarkable homes, carefully preserved or re stored. Because of its historical significance, historic Easton has earned © John Norton distinction as the “Colonial Capitol of the Eastern Shore” and was honored as number eight in the book “The 100 Best Small Towns in America.” With a population of over 16,500, Easton offers the best of many worlds including access to large metropolitan areas like Baltimore, Annapolis, Washington, and Wilmington.

Then I look at Ava. She finds humor in simple things. She laughs easily and often. She isn’t that worried about what other people think and doesn’t seem to need to be surrounded by friends all the time. She is nearly impossible to get out of bed in the morning or off the couch. She is mostly able to shrug off seizures or spells after they happen and look to what’s next. She’s learned to hit curve balls.
And maybe that’s the lesson that curve balls teach us: that we need to slow down, re-train our brains, see and approach things differently. Or we will miss it.
