Fun at Assateague Island Maryland

Ponies getting friendly with the people
Ponies near Ocean
Abby loving the beach
Burying Papa in the sand
running from the waves

We love this beach at the ocean in Maryland because of the ponies running wild on the beaches and the nature with many beautiful birds and lots of ocean. This is what
I miss most about Maryland besides my family and friends. we always went to the beach
every summer and enjoyed the ponies. Sometimes you have to whack them on their backside to get them away from your stuff. The lifeguards seem to do a pretty good job of getting them under control but I love having the ponies running wild on the beach. There was lots of waves to swim in and we all had lots of fun. This was Abby's
first time at the ocean and she loved every minute of it. Tyler loved planting his feet in the sand so the waves would not get him. The water was just right for swimming and we had a wonderful time. The grandkids enjoyed playing in the sand and covering Papa John up with sand. Only they can get away with pouring water down his back. As grandparents we had so much fun seeing the grandkids enjoy the ocean as much as we have through the years.........

OH MY GOSH, ponies on the beach? I LOVE THAT! I have never heard of it. That's like something you would see in the movies. I had no idea Maryland was so beautiful. What does the country side look like? Sounds like a fun trip. I can't wait to hear all about it. The kids look like they are having the time of their life!

Ellie loves the books about these ponies. I did too when I was growing up. you will have to teach us the right way to say the islands names! Looks like so much fun!
