Something to do

So, if you looking for something to do this Father Day's week-end, or any other week-end till November 9th, may I suggest a trip down the historic Chesapeake & Ohio Canal. Back in the days that canals were used to haul large industrial loads, this canal linked Western Maryland with Georgetown. Today, there are still many structures standing from the 1800's. It's also one activity in Georgetown that does not involve alcohol, college students or shopping. The canal ride at Great Falls is not offered this summer due to damage to the boat, but the one in Georgetown survived budget cuts. It lasts about an hour and there are even park rangers in historical get-ups.
