Blackwater River

25 Apr 26: 

Once navigable by steamboat and small craft, the Blackwater River on the western side of our county is now hindered by deadfall and silting, so bring your saw and a bucket. These waterways kept export and import flowing for the Patriots, as the British maritime forces were not geared up for inland operations. Once the farm truck arrived on the scene, the government shut down programs to keep the waterway clear.
