A River Runs Through the U.S. Capitol

No, this is not the mighty Zambezi; this is the Potomac River about two miles up from my house. This is only part of the flow.



All of this water and more rolls past the cliffs below my house.



If you put a boat in the water just below my house, up river from Georgetown in Washington, D.C., you can sail to Paris, London, Stockholm, Cape Town, Hong Kong, or Tierra del Fuego.
