Assateague Island

Anyone ever been there?

It's in Maryland if I'm not mistaken and I wanna put a trip together for me and my girl this summer.

The have a reserver there with a bunch of wild ponies and you can take your car on the beach and see the ponies running free.

Never heard of it, but it looks like a lot of fun.

Ya they say a Spanish cargo ship in the 1600's dropped off about 300 of these ponies and sunk offshore.

Also the island has a fence. Half VA and half MD.

You should go.

Yup, I've been camping there. It was very windy, and I learned what it was like to be a kite. :rolleyes:

I did enjoy camping there, and the beach is beautiful. It's been WAAAYYYY too many years since I've been there, so I really can't think of anything that might be useful now. Sorry. :oops:
