The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Trail (National Historic Park) goes 153 miles from Washington D.C to Cumberland, Maryland.  A few years back I biked approx 100 miles of the trail from Antietam, Md to Cumberland, MD.  This is a fabulous trail. Even though David and I are trip tired and ready to go home, this is an opportunity neither one of us want to miss. We only biked about 15 miles of the trail.  We saw a white tail deer crossing the path and met a man that was backpacking the entire trail.  He told us about a 60 mile rail trail in Pennsylvania that goes from Jersey Shore to Williamsboro,  add it to the list.  It was a very, very nice wind down to the trip.

Next destination HOME!!!   This has been a fantastic, unforgettable adventure.  It was filled with amazing places, the most beautiful scenery, charismatic animals (no bear) and nice people.     But…. There’s No Place Like Home!
