seasoning, and this gets my juices going, thinking of things.” And cruise ships. Earlier in the day, she and the owner of Debbi’s Chocolate and Gift Shop next door, and the owner of the Captain’s Galley had put on a demonstration for the passengers of the cruise ship I had seen earlier. Passengers learned to shuck oysters. The local businesses made some sales. Everyone was happy.
“It is small business that is going to grow Crisfield,” Linyear said. “A new plant isn’t going to open up.” So she and other local business owners have formed a marketing group to make Crisfield and their businesses better known to recreational boaters and other potential tourists.

It only takes one building to alter a skyline, and in Crisfield that deed is already done. More than a dozen additional buildings are on the drawing board, but whether they will ever be completed depends on whether superb views, great fishing, a charming population . . . and blue cheese . . . will be enough to draw come-heres down there. So far the few dozen people who have come have made little impact on the town itself. Then how would I answer my question: Have condos spoiled Crisfield? You’ll just have to come on down and judge for yourself.
