The Route - Day 4
Our last full day has us in three states, all on the C&O canal trail. This day will have the most to see with stops in Sharpsburg, MD and Harper's Ferry and a night in a real bed in Leesburg, VA.
Another day spent on the Maryland, West Virgina border. Today, our last day on the C&O Trail will take us 77 miles.
Our first stop is the longest single leg of the trip at 39 miles to Sharpsburg, MD. We may start in Williamsport, MD for a snack, that is if Brian starts complaining. We'll be eating at Gege's Place which I'm intrigued by as it is described as, "a cross between a restaurant, saloon, biker bar, and pool hall." My only concern is they are a pizza place and Brian is claiming to be lactose intolerant.
We'll be stopping in just tweleve more miles in Harper's Ferry, WV. This is Brian's request, but I'm excited since I've never been. No big plans here, just roll through and get a snack.
The last bit of the day is exciting as well. We'll be taking White's Ferry, the last operating ferry on the Potamac river. From the Virginia side of the river the fine folks at the The Leesburg Colonial Inn will pick us up and take us into town for a night in a bed.
