the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.discoversea.com\/index.html\">Discover Sea Shipwreck Museum<\/a>.\u00a0 You can imagine how interesting a place like this would be for 3 little boys&#8230;full of sunken treasure.\u00a0 The website provides information on many of the shipwrecks along the Delmarva\u00a0coastline&#8230;.truly fascinating pieces from a jewelry box with a locket of hair to bottles of unopened and intact wine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sweetbeadstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/07\/shipwreckmuseum.jpg\" alt=\"shipwreckmuseum.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I couldn&#8217;t resist snapping a few photos of the beautiful local flowers, one being Brown Eyed Susans &#8211;
