It was raining as we came through after Hubby heart check up...yep, he still has one.
I asked him to stop. I wanted pictures.
In the rain?
I don't care. I want pictures.
These steps took me to Dry Run Creek.
to see this
and this in the rain.
The steps back seems much steeper but
if you notice my little orb is with me.
The fog was rolling in but there were people fishing every where.
The minimal flow pipe was running along with two flood gates.
The pictures do not do Norfork River justice.
The beauty was breathtaking.
I kept moving closer and closer to get a good shot.
The fog was winning but I finally got the flood gates.
And I got a rock. Did that surprise anybody?
This is the power station below the dam.
Sometimes power is generated, but here's the kicker
The power is bought by another state!
The power plant in enclosed with a chain link fence.

pretty area and glad someone's getting the power, anyway. :)
Words fail me. Such astounding images.
Thank you for your directions! My afternoon project (one of...)
Great pictures.
Of course you found a rock! I like that quote you have about feeling the mountain.... I'm going to try it! Lovely view there, even in the rain, possibly even more magical. The fishing should have been good for them!
What a pretty trail you walked to get to the Falls (which are gorgeous) and the power plant shots were wonderful too.
Our power grid makes no sense to me!
Oh such beauty which you have captured for us so well! Sigh. I envy you the rain and mist - we need it here - our rainforest is becoming desert-dry.
Love the fog. I like your rock picture with the grasses, too.
Fatastic scenes. Great fences for today's meme
I am glad hubby has a heart - tsk - and love that rain does not deter adventures or photographs and words...
They are good pictures.
Fog is so atmospheric, and hey what is a little rain ... I like it.
All the best Jan
Yep, like get this one. We have a large natural power plant a few miles up the highway and the power is sold to the States?? These photos with the land fog and mist are just beautiful. I would have stopped in the rain as well to capture these great photos. Loved them and good news to hear Den the Lion is ticking away wonderfully. lol
Beautiful place, I would love to fish there.
I would have to be further on down this water in order to keep the fish I caught. Hubby and I love trout, we would want to have a nice camp fire going, in order to fry the fish for a nice early breakfast.
the photos came out really good, i have never tried rain pics, these are great. i had to smile at the Dry Run Creek that is full of water. i like the pics with the falls, they look magical.
Thanks to HUBS for stopping for these wonderful,pictures . . .
Very nice . . .
Beautiful rainy, foggy, misty pics . . .
Wonderful images of the creek and the dam. Thanks to you and the hubs for stopping. Great fence finds too.
That's a really beautiful place, what stunning photos.
It probably won't surprise you when I say releasing fish is quite cruel and really, what's the point if you're not eating them?

I have been there and it is a lovely spot. I didn't know however that the power was sold to other states. Bummer.
