Today I took a hike, like I often do, but this time, I took a few pictures. I hiked on the southernmost part of the Seneca Creek Greenway Trail and reached the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Towpath, which I thoroughly explored back in the 1990s. Near the southern end of the SCGT is what's left of Seneca Mill. Despite a sign warning against vandalism, it was largely covered in graffiti, as seen here.
I stepped through the opening above and saw this wall, full of graffiti.
In the next shot, we can see that the graffitists didn't go too high on the walls, but did not spare some stones on the ground.
A short connecting trail led me to the aforementioned C&O Towpath and its aqueduct over Seneca Creek, the top of which is seen here. During the 1990s, I rode my bike right over where the two women are apparently taking a break.
On the east side of the creek are the remains of Riley's Lock, the 24th lock on the canal, including the lock keeper's house.
From the aqueduct, I saw this group of kayakers on the Potomac River, just south of the mouth of Seneca Creek. They are why this post gets the "sports" label.
After taking this last pic, it was time to return to my starting point, about a mile to the north. See youz soon.
