The New Wye Oak

I’ve attended networking events in Annapolis where I am known as the Arts and Entertainment man from the shore. Of course lately these have been held virtually. I’ve been asked where to go on the shore. Usually they are looking for places on the Lower Shore since they are going to the Beach.

I tell them that on their way to the beach to take a short detour off of US 50 by turning right at the light at Chesapeake College to Wye Mills

The Wye Oak, Maryland’s honorary state tree, was the largest white oak tree in the United States and the State Tree of Maryland from 1941 until was destroyed on a June 6, 2002 by a severe thunderstorm. A clone of the old tree stands in its current location.

More Photos of Wye Mills can be seen as this week’s Delmarva Life on my Website ShoreToBeFun Photography
