St Pauls Episcopal Church

St Pauls Episcopal Church

St Pauls Episcopal Church, Point of Rocks, Maryland

After our hike on Sugarloaf Mountain, we drove north into Adamstown. Then we headed towards Point of Rocks, but on winding, country roads, rather than going over the US 15. Shortly before getting into town, we stopped at this church and graveyard, which is St Pauls Episcopal. We don’t really know much about the church except that it was built in 1842 (per the plaque on the wall). We like cemeteries and graveyards, though, and Cathy enjoyed walking around looking at names, dates, and memorial stone art.

It was a cool but absolutely lovely day today and we drove up to Sugarloaf Mountain, a privately owned but publicly accessible park. There were quite a few people there, which wasn’t at all surprising, but we found a good parking spot and headed up the fairly steep Orange Trail to the summit. There were a lot of folks milling around, enjoying the view, and climbing on the rocks. I took a lot of photos, including a very wide panorama. We came down by the Green Trail and the took the Blue and White Trails around the north side of the mountain.
