Today's riddle: The more you take, the more you leave behind. What am I ? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• What Wilmington renters are paying as apartment prices fall (delawareonline.com) — If you're renting in Wilmington, asking prices dipped about 4% from last year, with the median apartment now listing around $1,730. One- and two-bedroom units have inched down or held steady, leaving local rents slightly below statewide and national medians but still relatively high for smaller apartments compared with the rest of Delaware.
• Mysterious Stranger Drops Cash From Sky on Unwitting Americans (internewscast.com) — An anonymous Wilmington IT worker is using a drone to drop surprise cash, usually $20, on random people around Wilmington and northern Delaware, including visitors at the Wilmington Riverfront. He's now funding the "302 Cashcopter" project partly through public donations, has already given away hundreds of dollars, and hopes his airborne gifts inspire more everyday kindness across the community.
• Men challenged to live like saints at inaugural Catholic Men of Delmarva conference in Diocese of Wilmington (thedialog.org) — Men from across the Diocese of Wilmington gathered at Saint Mark's High School for the first Catholic Men of Delmarva conference, focused on practical ways to deepen their faith. Speaker Matthew Leonard urged attendees to reject aggressive "manosphere" messages, lean on the sacraments, and build a daily habit of prayer and quiet reflection to live more like saints.
