Re: Crisfield1- the last day and some travel towards home


Good morning Rod!  The National Park where you saw the ponies is Assateague Island.  You passed through the barrier island of Chincoteague and crossed Chincoteague Bay to get to the National Park of Assateague.  Each year in July there is something called the Chincoteague Pony Penning where a certain number of the ponies are auctioned and sold.  There is a wonderfully charming book that came out in the 1940's or 1950's called "Misty of Chincoteague".  I believe it was made into a movie.
I hope you arrived home safely and thanks again for all the help.  Joe Pinto
