Miles on trail 38
Notes Today we rode from Union Station to the Marble Quarry campsite. Train ride went smoothly although our ride in D.C. was a bit dicey at times. The C+O has been beautiful so far! Lots of different terrains and some really breath taking view points. We saw a lot of herons, deer (one bouced ahead of us on the trail for a while), a fox and an owl.

We camped with a couple from TN (Lisa and Tim) who were really nice. I walked idown to the Potamic when we got in and saw deer tracks, felt really nice to swim a bit in the river. There were mating butterflies and some craw dads. Mulberry and honeysuckle are in bloom. Feeling strong and good.
