After visiting the Waterfront, I made my up into town to look around.
|
The old Chesapeake and Ohio (C&O) Canal runs through town. Georgetown was established in 1751 as a tobacco port. To overcome natural obstructions further up the Potomac River, the C&O Canal extended 184 miles from Georgetown to Western Maryland to transport people and goods. |

Guess this stuff is everywhere...................... |
|
Bridge over the Canal. |
|
Planks and nails of the bridge worn smooth over the years. |
|
Nice sentiment, but, Really? |
|
This flag flies over the Francis Scott Key Park and Star Spangled Banner Monument. |
There's some amazing architecture here.
You could spend all day wandering the streets trying to take it all in.
|
Apparently there is always a line at this place. |
Thanks for looking...........
