Well, for starters, you might try Calvert Cliffs State Park, which has
a number of fossils in the cliffs, especially shark's teeth. St Mary's
County has some of its own Amish people. Point Lookout State Park is where
the Potomac empties into the Bay. There is also the settlement where
the first settlers to Maryland came aboard The Arc and The Dove. Its
name escapes me for the moment...Is it St. Marys City?
