Life Rocks when your living room rolls
![]() Our drive from Delaware put us entering Maryland through Ocean City. I looked for the welcome sign but did not see one 😩. This is the first and only state sign I have not yet caught a picture of while entering the state. It was bike weekend so there was so much traffic and soooo many bikes. I wasn't disappointed about that (besides it making us miss our motorcycles a bit). We make it to our Sun Outdoors Frontier Town campground. This place has everything (check it out if you are ever looking for a cool campground stay). They have a waterpark, they do western shows with cowboys. There are 2 taverns and again it was bike weekend so this place was packed. Once we got to our spot and settled in we decided to take the e-bikes out to go explore the campground. It was too big to try to walk it all. At the back end there is the pool and beach. You can also dock a boat if you need. A lot of people seem to also do good with fishing from the dock. We then made out way to the front where all the activities are. We see the tavern The Golden Nugget. We thought it was dinner time anyways so why not check it out. We go back to the camper drop off our drink cups and head back up on the bikes. The inside of this place is exactly what you would expect out of a western themed local tavern. We sit at the bar and immediately the patrons start chatting with us along with the bartender Adam. He was awesome! The food didn't offer a huge choice but after a round of pickle vodka for each of us at the bar I knew I had to eat something. We order some chicken tenders and another round as well as another pickle vodka shot. I am obsessed with pickles and it tasted just like pickle juice. Every Saturday night they have karaoke so that was happening. It wasn't super busy and I was starting to catch a good buzz so I thought since I will never see these people again, why not get up there? (I know better) I request my go to song I'm real from Jennifer Lopez. Within 5 minutes my song is called. I go up to some song that I have no idea what it is playing. Thankfully I had told another girl the song I was going to play so she went to the DJ and had him play the correct one. But honestly, it didn't matter. I was awful. It was recorded but we are just going to keep that in the embarrassment vault (to bring out at anniversaries or birthdays 😂). I also had told Adam that right before I go up to sing he needs to please pour me a shot of tequila to be sure I have all the liquid courage. Again, not a good decision and I knew better. After I had made my way off stage and finished my current drink, I look at Chris and say, "I think it is time for me to go". 🫠 I have had too much to drink. I also do not do well with Vodka. It will make me forget everything by morning and I was at that limit. Right on cue, I don't remember riding our bikes back home. Thankfully it was in a campground with its own bike route. The next morning when I get up to use the bathroom I slip coming back to bed. I was like WTF?! Oh that's fantastic, it was pickle vomit on my bathroom carpet and floor 🤮. So not happy with myself. Sunday we had the plan that we were going to take the bikes to Assateague Island so I had to pop the Advil and get myself going. I drank my coffee and finished with a mimosa to kick myself in gear. We brought our backpack cooler so we could stop to pick up some drinks and lunch to have a picnic while on the beach. We got the drinks and found a sticker but didn't get any food. When outside the store we remembered we wanted to bring the go-pro. So back to the camper to grab it. We attached it to my bike and off we go to the island. It's a nice bike route on the road and once you get into Assateague they have a separate path for biking or walking. Pretty much as soon as we get over the bridge we see some wild horses. If you aren't familiar with this island in Maryland, it is where they have wild horses graze and during a month in August the cowboys swim the horses to Virginia, the foals are sold off and all the adults and 1 foal swim back to live on the island. Once in the park we were going to park the bikes but we decided to see if the Super 73 will ride in sand. Our first attempt didn't work with the soft sand but we tried again and once closer to the water the bikes road perfect. We road for a while on the beach until I stopped to take my tanktop off and we were stoped by a lifeguard to say we can't ride on the beach. We make our way up to the parking lot and lock the bikes. We head back down to the beach and find a nice spot next to a few wild horses that are napping to sit next to them and enjoy a drink while soaking in some sun. It is the coolest thing to have all these wild horses all around. ![]() After about an hour sitting we pack up and head back to the bikes. We take them all the way down to as far as the path goes and turn around. Again, all along our ride are horses. There are also a handful of campsites. Some you can drive into but some are walk in only. We went through one of the drive in ones but you aren't allowed into the walk in ones unless you have reservations. I wish we would have camped here for a night. I would have loved to wake up or sit by the fire while the horses joined. It is getting late so we start to head back to the campground. On the way back we stop at a crab shack that was recommended the evening before. We have a fresh crab sandwich, calamari and a drink. Once done we make our way back to the campground. It has started to clear out a lot. Most campers are leaving after their weekend of bike fun. Since it was a bit of a long day and an even longer night we decide to keep an easy night and turn in early, Monday was a normal work day for Chris. I get my thorough cleaning done. Later in the afternoon we go and fill up the truck with gas and get a few needed groceries. When Chris is done work we take a walk around the campground. There was this toy hauler that had the matching color scheme. It was pretty fancy 😎. We go back make some dinner, get the bikes put on the bike rack, and pick up a few items to make pick up easier in the morning. We get a workout in when we wake up. Then after showering we make some breakfast and now it is time to begin tear down and get ready for a travel day. Everything is all set and off we go to our next state.
