Back to the Ponies

July 15th, 2008 · 3 Comments

Ok last horse picture.   Just thought I’d post something less somber after yesterday’s picture. 
Actually I had plans for this day’s post, but when I took a trip to go photograph a pretty cool historic site I had heard about in Rockville, I got there and realized that I had left the memory card out of my […]

Dunes?

July 11th, 2008 · 2 Comments

That black strip in the middle of the picture is not some sort of volcanic rock, as some of us had hypothesized it to be.  It is asphault.   It turns out that, as a real suprise, some developer in the 50’s tried to develop Assateague and paved a road all the way down to the […]

Objects outside mirror are closer than they appear.

This guy doesn’t have the full fledged “jim from the office” haircut, like Tony from yesterday, that makes the Assategue horses so famous.  However, we’ll still post him becasue he was comically unafraid of anyone in the parking lot.  However, that’s not to say he shouldn’t be afraid.  Some guy nearby had tried to feed […]

What has four hooves and hides behind fences?

July 9th, 2008 · 2 Comments

This Guy!  Yup.  This is one of the wild ponies of Assateague Island.   This guy and his family are decendents of formerly domesticated horses who were raised on the island to avoid the need for pens and to avoid all sorts of other containment issues.   These days, there’s noone domesticating them, but they are not […]

OC History Museum

June 13th, 2008 · No Comments

I do love a good anchor.   This always fools me because I believe that the building with “Ocean City History” written on its side, should actually contain a museum on Ocean City history.  In a way there is a museum on the boardwalk, which is made up of a few artifacts, like this anchor.   You […]

OC Fire

April 16th, 2008 · 1 Comment

You’ve probably all heard about the fire on the OC boardwalk this past month.  I wasn’t there, so I can’t show you a picture.  However, here is a shot of some guy in a red jacket.  On the left side, a block behind him, is the block where the fire happened.   You can see the […]

OC Lamppost

April 1st, 2008 · 9 Comments

The lamppost from Friday did in fact come from Hagerstown.I might have to put a one guess per person rule in place since all that you needed to do was name every town in western MD. Either way, congratulations on guessing properly.    Just to keep with the theme here’s another cool […]

OC Clock

Well if there are two things I can’t get enough of, they are Esskay hot dogs and the ability to tell time.   I am unable to tell you if that is an official Esskay Oriole frank or not, but either way here it is

Transpeninsular Line

March 10th, 2008 · 5 Comments

What we see here is one of the remaining markers from the survey of the trans-peninsular line that cuts across the Delmarva peninsula and defines the southern border of Delaware.   I will take the time now to once again butcher and abridge some history for you.  
The charter given to the Penns for the three counties […]
