Assateague Island MD flyover of campsites and campground and beach
Every Summer, I take approximately 60 to 70 children and parents from my Day Care: Whales, Snails and Puppy Dog Tails (Whalesnail.com) to Assateague Island and we have about 12 to 14 campsites together and we camp out for the weekend. The children go Lord of the Flies in seconds and the run non-stop in feral packs all day and most of the night. We swim in the ocean, come back and eat and drink and repeat all day. At night we hit the Ocean City Boardwalk and the kids play all the arcade games, take in the sights and everyone shops. This last Summer my boy Sean and another boy Preston bought Free Hugs hats and t-shirts and then went up to pretty 20 something girls and explained how they were the free hugs committee of Ocean City and they could just tell they were in need of a hug, while flashing their cutest smiles and batting their eyes. I don't know how they did it, but they managed it every time. I said jokingly, while pointing at a girl with all kinds of tattoos and piercings, who was in the process of screaming at someone on her cell phone in an obvious rage, what about her?. Preston shrugged his shoulders and immediately went for it. I was sure he was going to get the slapping of his life and we all looked on with sort of a horror, yet anticipation. The girl stopped her screaming into the phone, just stood there for two seconds, to the point we were sure the slapping was going to commence, and then said so sweetly: Awwww, you're so sweet! How did you know I really needed a hug right now? and then proceeded to hug him.
When we come back from the boardwalk later at night, we get a fire going and roast hot dogs on roasting forks over the fire and then later on make smores. When it gets later yet, the children get out the flashlights and chase sand crabs, which roam all over the place. Every so often the bring back a bucket with the largest ones to show us by the fire. We talk and tell stories all night and later on just sit quietly and watch the fire and listen to the waves, which are very audible from the camp sites since they are only a few hundred yards away over the dunes. Some of us will venture down to the beach for a late night walk.
I took the video with a GoPro Black edition camera taped to the landing wheels of the plane facing backwards so your view wouldn't be obscured by the prop. The plane I used is the Hobbyking Tuff Trainer, which has a very quiet and smooth engine, which you wouldn't know by this video because I got sand in the engine a little earlier in the day and it was operating more like a coffee grinder than an smooth flowing engine. For beach video this next year I will be using the Hobbyking Bixler, whose engine faces rearward behind the wing and will not be subject to getting sand in engine upon landing. The Bixler is also a bigger plane that is also a powered glider, which means it will carries the GoPro more readily (see my other flight videos) and when I reach altitude, I can cut the engine and glide past what I want to film, which allows for a slower approach of the area I want to video and also the video does not have the sound or vibration of the engine. I get some really interesting sounds this way, sometimes, such as when I flew the Bixler through a snowstorm at my center and when I cut the engine you can hear all the snow hitting the camera and plane. The sound on this video was more interesting than the video.

Maryland - Assateague Island National Seashore Drive (2019)
Assateague Island is a 37-mile (60 km) long barrier island located off the eastern coast of the Delmarva peninsula facing the Atlantic Ocean. The northern two-thirds of the island is in Maryland while the southern third is in Virginia. The Maryland section contains the majority of Assateague Island National Seashore and Assateague State Park. The Virginia section contains Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge and a one-mile stretch of land containing the lifeguarded recreational beach and interpretive facilities managed by the National Park Service (or NPS). It is best known for its herds of feral horses, pristine beaches, and the Assateague Lighthouse. The island also contains numerous marshes, bays, and coves, including Toms Cove. Bridge access for cars is possible from both Maryland and Virginia, though no road runs the full north/south length of the island.
Like all barrier islands, Assateague has changed in form over the years. The structure of barrier islands is determined by movement of sand in the littoral zone, the land-facing side of the island. At one time, the island was connected to the lowest point of Fenwick Island. However, the 1933 Chesapeake–Potomac hurricane created an inlet south of Ocean City, Maryland. This inlet separated the two landforms. Normally, it would have silted back due to the littoral drift that ran from north to south. However, after the storm, between 1933 and 1935 a permanent system of artificial jetties was built to preserve the inlet as a navigation channel. As a result, the island has drifted considerably westward, and the two landmasses are now over 0.62 miles (1.00 km) apart. While this process has benefitted Ocean City, creating wider beaches and better fishing access, it caused erosion problems on Assateague.
Between 1933 and the early 1960s, federal interest in creating a national seashore on the island alternated with periodic pushes for development. In 1950, a 15-mile section of the Maryland side of Assateague was plotted for development, and a paved road, Baltimore Boulevard, was constructed to traverse the new development. The Ash Wednesday Storm of 1962 destroyed or covered most of Baltimore Boulevard, and many of the structures on the island were destroyed. Although some private landowners on the island supported re-development, by this time the state of Maryland generally supported a national seashore and legislation was introduced in the United States Congress. After Congressional efforts did not produce final legislation in 1964, new legislation in 1965 was successful and Assateague Island National Seashore was formed.

Assateague Island National Seashore is near Ocean City, MD and not far from Salisbury, MD. It is also within an hour and a half drive time of the Delaware Beaches (Lewes/Rehoboth).
This beach is famous for its wild horses that roam the beaches freely.
There are signs everywhere that remind the visitors NOT to feed, touch, or approach the wildlife/horses. The horse did walk down and around people and their blankets. People started to rush over and take photos of the horse. The lifeguards did blow their whistles and motion for people to back up if they were getting too close to the horse. But, it was still a pretty neat experience to see the wild horse on the beach. The wild horse seemed pretty calm with all the people standing around, so they must be used to all the attention.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Assateague Island National Seashore is a unit of the National Park Service system of the U.S. Department of the Interior. Located on the East Coast along the Atlantic Ocean in Maryland and Virginia, Assateague Island is the largest natural barrier island ecosystem in the Middle Atlantic states region that remains predominantly unaffected by human development. Located within a three-hour drive to the east and south of the Richmond, Washington, Baltimore, Wilmington, Philadelphia major metropolitan areas plus north of the several clustered smaller cities around Hampton Roads harbor of Virginia with Newport News, Hampton, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Chesapeake and Virginia Beach. The National Seashore offers a setting in which to experience a dynamic barrier island and to pursue a multitude of recreational opportunities. The stated mission of the park is to preserve and protect “unique coastal resources and the natural ecosystem conditions and processes upon which they depend, provide high quality resource based recreational opportunities compatible with resource protection and educate the public as to the values and significance of the area”.
Assateague Island encompasses a 37-mile long barrier island, adjacent marsh islands and waters in Maryland and Virginia, and the Assateague Island Visitor Center on the Maryland mainland. 41,346 acres of land and water are within the seashore’s boundaries. The island consists of three public areas; Assateague Island National Seashore (managed by the National Park Service), Assateague State Park (managed by the Maryland Park Service of the Department of Natural Resources) and Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge (managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service).

Driving on Interstate 68 in the Mountains in Maryland from Cumberland to Hancock
Interstate 68 (I-68) is a 112.9-mile (181.7 km) Interstate Highway in the U.S. states of West Virginia and Maryland, connecting I-79 in Morgantown, West Virginia, to I-70 in Hancock, Maryland. I-68 is also Corridor E of the Appalachian Development Highway System. From 1965 until the freeway's construction was completed in 1991, it was designated as U.S. Route 48 (US 48). In Maryland, the highway is known as the National Freeway, an homage to the historic National Road, which I-68 parallels between Keysers Ridge and Hancock. The freeway mainly spans rural areas and crosses numerous mountain ridges along its route. A road cut at Sideling Hill exposed geological features of the mountain and has become a tourist attraction.
The construction of I-68 began in 1965 and continued for over 25 years, with completion on August 2, 1991. While the road was under construction, it was predicted that economic conditions would improve along the corridor for the five counties connected by I-68: Allegany, Garrett, and Washington in Maryland, and Preston and Monongalia in West Virginia. The two largest cities connected by the highway are Morgantown, West Virginia, and Cumberland, Maryland. Although the freeway serves no major metropolitan areas, it provides a major transportation route in western Maryland and northern West Virginia and also provides an alternative to the Pennsylvania Turnpike for westbound traffic from Washington, D.C., and Baltimore.
US 219 and US 220 both overlap I-68 in Garrett County, and Cumberland, respectively, and US 40 overlaps with the freeway from Keysers Ridge to the eastern end of the freeway at Hancock.
