C&O Towpath Ride - Sept 16-18, 2016 - Day 2

Harper's Ferry to Hancock, MD - another 60 miles

Second day - ready to go.  Quick breakfast and out on the road.  Really pretty path above Harper's Ferry.  Over Antietam creek - oddly on the anniversary of the Battle of Antietam - Sept 17, 1862.   A lot of blood must have flowed down this creek that day.

We then passed thru Shepherdstown, WV.  Stopped for lunch in Williamsport, MD at the Desert Rose Cafe - a very popular spot for the bike riders.  They love the riders!!  Food was excellent.

Camped that night in Hancock, MD.  Grabed some beer and dinner at the Tri-Angle Restaurant - just up in town off the trail.  Food was really good here as well.
