REHOBOTH BEACH, Del. - The new house is on the edge of Cape Henlopen State Park, just north of the boardwalk: three stories, six bedrooms, three fireplaces and an expansive view of the Atlantic Ocean.
The new owners are Joe and Jill Biden, rich for the first time in their lives, thanks to a three-book publishing deal - two by him, one by her - that allowed them to purchase the $2 million vacation home in this beachiest of beach towns.
Red, white and blue bunting hangs from the second-floor balcony. There's a small wooden sign, "A Promise Kept," over the entrance, and two others on either side: "Forever Jill" on one, "Beau's Gift" on the other. One is a tribute to Joe's wife of four decades, the other to the elder Biden son, who died of brain cancer two years ago at age 46.
"Throughout our careers, Jill and I have dreamed of being able to buy a place at the beach at home where we can bring the whole family," Joe said when the sale made headlines earlier this summer. "We feel very lucky that we're now able to make that happen and are looking forward to spending time with our family."

Uncle Joe can be president of the RB Beach front association but not the country. There he can keep undesirables off his part of the beach. Does this mean we will be seeing him frequent the Home Depot in Wilmington mingling with the common man?
ReplyDeleteMakes me sick because we paid for that house!
ReplyDeleteSave yourself and the citizens a lot of grief and forget about the dream of a ole old man. It will never happen.
ReplyDeleteHe is one of the poorest politicians in DC.
ReplyDeleteHe needs more room for his daughter in law....that married the other brother after his brother died....does anyone hear banjos playing "Deliverance" tune in the background???? Screwed up bunch from the word DEMOCRATS.....
ReplyDeleteMust be a nude beach out front of his place. Remember the female agents complaining the pervert swam naked in front of them. What a nasty individual and they said our president was a bad man for using certain language. Amazing how we have different rules for different tools or in Joey's case fool.
ReplyDeleteHe will never be POTUS and wouldn't have been if he ran earlier either.
Just say NO to Joe...poor leader
ReplyDeleteDumber than a brick !
