Annapolis day three

Today we headed off in the dingy at an early hour to visit the State House and the Paca House. William Paca was one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. The Maryland State House was the first US capital and where George Washington resigned his commission in the Army.

Who knew these still existed
We had lunch here seared Ahi Tuna on Alan's recommendation
