Fort Washington and Snow!


Last Monday we went to see Fort Washington, located in Maryland, across the Potomac from our area of Alexandria.  Fun fact:

"Fort Washington is the only permanent fortification built to defend the river approach to the Nation's Capital."





There is even a little lighthouse now used as a channel marker.


It was SO cold and started snowing while we were there.  By the time we got home... 


HUGE flakes were falling.  I mean they were more like snowchunks than snowflakes.
