To caption or not to caption, that is the question. And this time, the answer is “no.” I’ll go with the old adage that a picture is worth a thousand words.

To briefly set the scene: these photographs are from my recent two-day vacation in Ocean City, Maryland. The off-season there is very quiet, many businesses are closed till spring and there aren’t very many tourists there on a late-October Tuesday.

Hopefully these shots capture some of what I saw and felt.

I was tempted to caption these, but I think I'll let them speak for themselves. The first bunch are Crabtree Falls, a mile-long hike off Blue Ridge Parkway, northeast of Asheville. The last three are in the city.
