The Real Silver Spring


Silver Spring

This is the actual Silver Spring for which the area is named, discovered in 1840. It’s next to one of the Discovery Channel buildings a little distance from Georgia Ave. We were coming back from Mayorga and ran into it. Hard to imagine how differently the area looked 166 years ago.

There's a recent book on the history of Silver Spring. I love old pictures!
