Ground Zero
     ...is an old railroad town called Brunswick, Maryland.  This is the little 1800's railroad town we call home.  It's a good starting point for each post, as good as any.  Brunswick was once the largest train manufacturing town in America. In 1959 the railroad manufacturing moved up the line to Martinsburg, West Virginia and Brunswick kind of fell apart.  I'll get back to that later.
     The idea here is to create an abbreviated road trip to various destinations in our immediate area, something like a ground-level view from Google Earth, but more personalized so that you, the reader, will feel like you were there.
     Pictures?  Of course!
     Interviews? When possible. (We have some really weird people around here.)
     This project may take years to create and a short time to consume.  Thanks for joining us!

Potomac Avenue

(Brunswick's 'main street')
Brunswick has a few pretty cool places to eat and some great antique shops.  It also has one
 of the greatest railroad museums you'll ever see and is located right off the C&O Canal!
