#32 - A Wildlife Refuge

We went to Chincoteague and Assateague Island.  We went on a boat ride and saw the wild ponies that live on Assateague.  At the end of every June, they swim the ponies across the channel to Chincoteague and people can buy the foals.  If they didn't sell some of the young ponies, there would be too many ponies on the island.  This is called "Pony Penning Day."  There's a bunch of books about the horses on that island. "Misty of Chinoteague" is one of them. They're really good books, based on true stories and real people who are still alive and living on the island. It was really fun there.   

#25 - A Famous Field.

We went to Camden Yards to see the Orioles play against the Nationals.  All around the ball park everything was decked out in black and orange and there were signs that said "I hope the Orioles win."  and things like that.   The Orioles won!  I think the Orioles were encouraged by all the signs around.  We went with our friends, the Fosters, who live near there. It was really fun!
