Assateague Island

AKA Horse Poop Island! 

Ok, so first a little background info on my ability to camp.  I have no problem roughing it.  With that in mind, remember I'm a girl.  I like to take a nice shower everyday and I looove toilets that flush.  We have a pop up camper.  It's the bomb diggity for sure. 

Ok, back to Horse Poop Island....This place is a barrier island off of the MD and VA, it's well known for wild horses that pretty much run that island.  So, on the way down I read the brochure for this place.  I come across 'cold water showers' and 'compost toilets' omg...I freaked!!!!  Sure enough the campsites were like ROUGHING IT...no electricity, compost toilets (it's a better version of a port-a-potty), and a very cold water shower that turns off every minute or so (by the last day I got my shower routine down).  Then comes the horse poop...I seen at least 50 piles of HUGE horse poops that weekend...I'm sure it's more but I didn't want to over exaggerate.  The first 5 piles I seen I would laugh....other than that I started getting gross. 
Ocean City, MD.....that place would have been awesome when I was in my younger-mid 20s.
