Ocean City - Pense em uma típica cidade do litoral dos Estados Unidos. Adicione a ela um calçadão moderno, uma praia repleta de atrações e a reputação de melhor lugar dos EUA para pescar marlins. Essa é a Ocean City. Apesar de ter apenas 16 quilômetros de litoral no oceano Atlântico, a variedade de atrações da região impressiona. Ocean City é ótima para acampar na praia, além de ser um destino acessível e ideal para quem viaja em família, pois oferece opções para todas as idades. Você pode jogar uma partida de golfe ou minigolfe, comer no calçadão ou ir a um restaurante à beira-mar para saborear frutos do mar frescos e vinhos.
Crisfield - É uma cidade no Condado de Somerset, Maryland, Estados Unidos, localizada no Tangier Sound, um braço da Baía de Chesapeake. Está incluído na Área Estatística Metropolitana de Salisbury, Maryland-Delaware. Crisfield tem a distinção de ser a cidade incorporada mais meridional em Maryland. O local de hoje Crisfield foi inicialmente uma pequena vila de pescadores chamada Annemessex Neck. Durante a colonização européia, foi renomeado Somers Cove, depois de Benjamin Summers. Quando o potencial de negócios para frutos do mar foi descoberto, John W. Crisfield decidiu trazer a Ferrovia da Pensilvânia para Crisfield, e a tranquila cidade pesqueira cresceu.
St. Mary's City - Distrito histórico e vila, condado de St. Mary, no sul de Maryland, EUA, no rio St. Marys, a cerca de 25 km a sudeste de Leonardtown, a sede do condado. Fundada em 1634 por colonos liderados por Leonard Calvert e nomeada para a Virgem Maria, foi o primeiro assentamento europeu de Maryland e foi construída no local de uma aldeia indígena de Secowocomoco. O Monumento Leonard Calvert (1890), em razão da Igreja Episcopal da Trindade, supostamente marca o local onde os colonos se reuniram para estabelecer o primeiro governo de Maryland. St. Marys era a capital colonial e, em 1676, os colonos construíram uma casa estatal (reconstruída em 1934). Com a remoção da capital para Annapolis em 1694 e a sede do condado de Leonardtown em 1710, o assentamento declinou rapidamente.
Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge - A Flyway Atlântica é a principal rota que as aves levam entre as viagens migratórias do norte e do sul, e o Refúgio Nacional da Vida Selvagem da Blackwater foi estabelecido para dar aos nossos amigos de penas uma parada para descanso. Esta enorme extensão de pântano e floresta de pinheiros contém um terço do habitat das terras húmidas de Maryland. Milhares e milhares de pássaros chamam o refúgio de lar ou param em suas rotas migratórias. / Mais Informações:

Com suas raízes na construção de navios e tabaco, St. Michaels é descontraído.

Celebrate Maryland's 375th right here where it all began in St. Mary's County!
2009 marks a milestone in Marylands history---its 375th anniversary! In 1634, 140 hardy travelers crossed the Atlantic in two small ships, ventured up the Chesapeake Bay into the Potomac River, and landed on the shores of tiny St. Clements Island. Led by Governor Leonard Calvert, the colonists soon sailed on from the island up the St. Marys River and established Lord Baltimores settlement. They christened their new world Terra Maria, or Maryland, and the fourth permanent settlement in British North America was born and the colony was up and running. St. Marys City became the FIRST capital of Maryland and a surprisingly cosmopolitan town with taverns, lodging houses, a brick chapel and a printing press and populated by men and women determined to create a truly New World based on principles of freedom of conscience and separation of church and state. These founding tenets would become the basis for some of our nations most cherished freedoms.
Three hundred and seventy-five years later, Maryland has grown to become a state known for its high standard of living, its entrepreneurial spirit and its leadership in the fields of technology, and St. Marys County has grown right along with it! Today, St. Marys blends a vibrant economy—its the states fastest growing region in terms of technology-related jobs—with its rich past, giving the area a unique character as well as a high quality of life. Located just a short drive south of Washington, D.C., Baltimore and Annapolis, youll find inspiring colonial and maritime heritage, and great places to shop, eat and stay, plus fabulous festivals that celebrate 375 years of history and culture.

HAUNTED MINUTES – Rackliffe House
CORRECTION: Charles Rackliffe built the house but JOHN Rackliffe is the one who was murdered and whose wife was poisoned. So sorry for the mistake, but this was done on a whim and it was also FREEZING.
John Rackliffe was murdered by his slaves and is believed to haunt the property as well as his wife who also died an untimely death shortley after her husband. There was also an accidental death of a woman who fell down the steps, and the legend of a widow who lost her only son to the British army during the war of 1812. She hanged herself in the attic.
That means Rackliffe House is the site of a murder, a suicide and an accidental death .... the Haunted Trifecta!
