06-09-13 Together in Harper's Ferry, West Virginia



Had a lazy morning then proceeded to old town Harper's Ferry. We hung out at the Appalachian Trail Conservancy for awhile and ran into DNA's dad, Stan. What a treat it was to catch up with him!

Harper's Ferry, West Virginia is very historic. Situated between the Potomac River and Shenandoah River it was a strategic point not just during the Civil War but also for the Lewis and Clark Expedition.

We walked around the preserved buildings and saw where John Brown, the abolitionist, was caught during his raid. Peaked inside many other buildings they've preserved for the National Park.

Late in the afternoon, Morning Kid and Bamboo joined us at the campsite and we cooked out for dinner.
