another first

for you bring us here in a single click the only known river
national or otherwise
but of course it is a truly national one
having both a monumented head & a monumented foot

& i would like to call that beauty an oballisk


by contrast
the tidal head of the potomac actually lies somewhere within dc itself
making this river & capital possibly also unique
tho the point itself
situated probably just below the falls just below dcmdvan
is probably unmarked
