Really picky detail - that campground is actually between the railroad
tracks and the Potomac, not the Shenandoah!

October is a delightful time to be there, too, if it's not pouring.  Which
of course it was, but it was still good.

:::Hi Volks,
:::
:::Got home from JBB sometime after 1AM yesterday. It was a another

:::Highlights:
:::- Route 219 through western Pennsylvania. This was a great choice for

:::traveling, at least until we got down into MD where the rains kicked in.
:::
:::- Brunsick MD. The town is pretty cool. A bit more "working class"
:::than Harper's Ferry, and very proud of its Railway Heritage. The
:::campground is very nice, sitting right between the Shanandoah river
:::and the railway station. A terrific place for those who like trains,
:::and overall a lot more suitable and affordable than the KOA we used
:::from 2002-2005.
