Greenbrier State Park, you need to be there as early as possible to get in because during the peak season there’s a capacity limit to the park and they block the access road if it gets too crowded. We arrived there before noon but were …
Assateague State Park. The beach was closed temporarily because of rain. There really were wild horses. I saw altogether around 5 of them. They don’t bother being in the middle of the road. The cars gotta be extra careful. A horse approached our car while …
This is an excellent grand gallery. You can spend the whole day enjoying the art displayed here. You might need two days to see all of it thoroughly if you are an art lover. No entry fee. https://www.nga.gov/
