1880's Excursion To The Beach



Undated picture from Ocean City Life Saving Museum

An 1888 Pocomoke City newspaper article tells about a fun day at the beach during a group excursion from Pocomoke to Ocean City (and it only took a few hours to get there).

Read the full article on this Sunday's Time Machine here at the Pocomoke Public Eye.

In the early 1950s our family would take excursions to Ocean City in our 1936 Ford farm truck with bales of hay in the back to sit on. It was about a two hour trip each way...and there was no problem finding a place to park, even for a big truck!
