Former Vice President Joe Biden has purchased a vacation home near Cape Henlopen State Park.
Biden issued a statement saying he and his wife, Jill, had always dreamed of being able to buy a home at the beach where his family can get together.
The Wilmington News Journal reports that Biden as Delaware’s longest serving senator secured the return of the federal land at Cape Henlopen.
The paper reports that the former Vice President used the advance on his upcoming book to buy the property.
The first edition will look at his days in the White House during the time of the death of his son Beau the former attorney general of Delaware.
He is also expected to continue to be engaged with current events with the establishment of a political action committee called American Possibilities.
