Storms a Comin’ to Assateague

Black And White Photography, Laurie, Photography

Assateague Island is a 37 mile long island along the coasts of Maryland and Virginia known for it’s wild horses.  We saw a few the day that we visited but they were far in the distance.

“The “wild” horses on Assateague are actually feral animals, meaning that they are descendants of domestic animals that have reverted to a wild state. Horses tough enough to survive the scorching heat, abundant mosquitoes, stormy weather and poor quality food found on this remote, windswept barrier island have formed a unique wild horse society”.

Don’t Lose This!

“Originally built in 1926-1927, the General Francis Marion Hotel reopened in 2006 after almost two years of renovation and restoration.  The grand old hotel was reborn with the comfort, convenience and amenities of a modern hotel while retaining the ambiance of the 1920’s”.

Guests are given an original key after being notified that if lost, the charge will be $100.  Needless to say, I kept close eye on it!
