Tuesday Travels: Lake Creek Falls

Dale and I are going to try something for a while. We've cleared our calendars of chores and appointments on Tuesdays. We're going to hop in the convertible and go for a ride. This is when we may visit the parks to fulfill our 22 goals in 2022. Or we might simply explore more of our beautiful new state of Oregon.

For certain, we most enjoy rides in the countryside. This week we headed west to find Lake Creek Falls. Along the way ...

we saw fields and fields of sheep. 


The lambing season is upon us.


Pastoral imagery lay before us in every direction.


Lake Creek Falls lie at the base of a ravine in a deeply wooded area. Sunlight filters through the mossy trees to reveal the rushing water.


These falls are made up of a series of rock steps, and manmade concrete fish ladders. The water rushes wide and shallow down the rock steps,


then gains in momentum at the fish ladder.


We were the only people around, alone among the forest, the spring runoff, and the wood nymphs. I swear, I could hear them! They are my kin.
