 Great historical town....the Potomac River is really low, due to the drought.

Yep, both the Potomac and the Shenadoah were low. Not sure how the people that give rides on the river is making it now.

Timbo, Yes sir, been under the tracks. *up* This is the 4th or 5th time I have been there. Did you walk across the river on the RR bridge. That is awesome, especially when a trian is on the other bridge.
