Tuesday afternoon we crossed into the old confederacy on a ferry named the Gen. Jubal A. Early. We were reminded of the character Jubal Early from Firefly, who was a sociopathic bounty hunter. When we looked up Gen. Early we were a little surprised to discover that the ferry is named after such a devisive figure. Gen. Early never made peace with the post-war United States remaining an "unreconstructed rebel."
Despite all that, the ferry ride was peaceful, foggy and beautiful. Today we return to Maryland to continue our hike.
