John Clare knew and loved this stream:
"I love to see the Beech Hill mounting high,
The brook without a bridge and nearly dry,
There's Bucket's Hill, a place of furze and clouds
Which evening in a golden haze enshrouds."
(Bucket Hill was the old name for Buckhurst Hill)
Nearby is Lippitt's Hill Lodge the mental asylum that once held the peasant poet, John Clare. Run by the kindly Dr Allen, Clare entered as a voluntary patient in 1837. He improved and was allowed to walk in Epping Forest. In 1841, he grew worse and with the help of gypsies, he escaped and walked first to Enfield and then some 80 miles home to Northborough in Northamptonshire. He was then restrained in Northampton Asylum where he died 24 years later.

Another view of the Smoky Mountain stream in the National Park. Not much water now, but, I imagine it overflows after spring run off and rains
A bit of an early Waterfall Wednesday post (though it's not a waterfall shot, specifically). I took this on the hike back from Ramona Falls, on the longer scenic loop. Something intrigues me about this photo, but I can't put my finger on it. Critiques would be much appreciated, specifically if you think this shot is dull and boring!
Thanks for stopping to look.
Okay I lost my notes or didn't write any down on these shots. I think it wasn't far down the road from Roaring Mountain. Anyways it's the prettiest area....the stream is covered in this lush green grass....very pretty.

This Sunrise met us on our last day in the park. Right after this Brennan had a nice meeting with the park ranger discussing the parks thermal features!
The creek was down to a small trickle when we passed through last weekend. I bet it's got a bit more after the rain we've had the past few days. — in Rainier, OR.
"... The flow rate varies with the seasons: 0.7 m/sec in fall, 4.5 m/sec in spring. The annual volume is 25 million cubic meters."
