It was a pleasure to write a piece for USA Today's GoEscape magazine (Mid-Atlantic edition) this summer. The article is shown in the images above. You can click through the short article.
Below, I've listed many links to key resources and attractions. There is also a gallery of images that weren't used in the magazine. So, why not share here? If you haven't visited the Eastern Shore, put it on your list. It's a special place...
