On 10/8, I wrote about our trip to the C&O Canal Park here on the Maryland side of the Potomac River, and I posted the photos we took there. I forgot to post the video we made as well. The quality isn’t fantastic, I used our digital camera, not a camcorder, but it’ll give you another dimension of the place. So, without further ado, here it is:
Back at the start of September, Ligia and I visited the C&O Canal Park, on the Maryland side. It was a rainy day, so we didn’t stay for long, but I did manage to take quite a few photos. I thought I’d share them with you. Enjoy!
Here’s Part 2.
A few weeks ago, Ligia and I visited White’s Ferry and Edwards Ferry, both on the Potomac River here in Maryland. We’d been to White’s Ferry before and knew what to expect, but hadn’t yet been to Edwards Ferry, which is hidden away and harder to get to. Both are very close to the C&O (Chesapeake & Ohio) canal, but while White’s Ferry only has a decrepit, rusty bridge as a reminder of the Canal (no water, mind you), Edwards Ferry still has the gatekepeer’s house, intact, a bit of water, and part of the lockgate. It’s also a more intimate, historically preserved location than White’s Ferry.
Just in case you’re wondering, Edwards Ferry has no ferry anymore (White’s Ferry does), but it does have a public launch ramp for boats, which is still actively used. We hiked around both locations, and also along the C&O Canal tow path, and took photos.
