So pretty to see the rocks under the water Shelley. By the way, Nalley was thrilled that you remembered Twin Pines Dairy. He wanted me to ask if your Grandmother lived in the Detroit area back in the '60's.

Where is this, compared to where you are?

It really does look like clear and clean waters... it how it looks here as it pours down from the snowy mountains.
When I find these little creeks, I actually find teeny little fish in them and I really don't know how they get in there!!

A beautiful photo!

I want to go read a good book there on a warm sunny day lol :) looks very peaceful. I love how the spring feed creeks are as clear as glacier rivers don't you?
hope you are having a sunny day!

Our creeks are getting lots of water now. Rain, rain and more rain. Water can be beautiful.

I really like the second shot. It would make a great jigsaw puzzle or framed poster.

Michele - I've always wondered about that too when you see the little fish in a small creek - :)

Busy Bee - thank you! Clean is my favorite thing! wink, wink!
