Paddlewheel on the Potomac

My husband and I celebrated our 30-year wedding anniversary today. We dined at a restaurant in Old Town Alexandria with a lovely view of the passing boats on the Potomac River, including this paddlewheel boat that was out for an evening cruise.

Happy Anniversary to YOU! What a lovely shot and a beautiful paddle wheel! So colorful and bright. Love the nostalgic feel of it...nice reflection on the water also. A lovely view from your dining place.

@cljs It is a great paddlewheel boat.

@lesip It does seem unlikely for so near D.C., doesn't it.

@eyesmile Thanks, Gena! It was a perfect night to celebrate and a bonus to see this beautiful boat.

@grahambudd Thanks, Graham. I was thrilled that the setting sun broke out from the clouds just in time to light this passing boat.
