My mom and I decided to take a day-trip this Thanksgiving. We ended up on Assateague Island on a beautiful sunny day that was plenty warm in the beginning and never got more than nippy. It was great. I think this was my third or fourth time there, and the first time in ten years... and I finally saw the ponies. Up close. Very close. Right by the road. When we were leaving we saw one literally in the middle of the road beside a stopped van, poking its head at the window. It was too dark to stop to take a picture of that one, though. But ponies, deer, seagulls, mussels, marshes, shells, the ocean, dunes, sunshine... it was fantastic.
