The photo above is my most viewed photo on Flickr. For a long while I could not figure out why this photo got so much attention. It is not in any special group or pool. I’ve finally figured it out (with help of Flickr’s statistics tools). Google is sending folks there when they enter 'Sea View Hotel Juhu' or 'Sea View Hotel Mumbai' into a Google search. So now I know.

Floating the Potomac River

Floating from Paw Paw to Little Orleans way too many years ago.

Floating the Potomac by LostBob
This started as a first attempt to scan a 35mm color negative on my HP-3970 Scanner.

The negatives are from a 1991 canoe camping trip floating from Paw Paw down to Little Orleans. These shots are from near the put-in. Twelve miles of the Paw Paw bends lie ahead. The bends is that section of river bypassed by the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal via the Paw Paw Tunnel. After the bends there is a hiker-biker camping site where the canal rejoins the river on the downstream side of the tunnel. From the camp site it is less than two mile back the tow path and through the tunnel (very convenient if you’ve left your jacket back in the car).

This is probably the best overnight trip on the Potomac. Finish up with a cold one at Bill’s Place in Little Orleans.
