This is Spring Creek in Mertzon, Tx. I took a drive to see if I could capture some autumn color.

I couldn't resist this scene!

Thanks for visits and comments.

Built circa 1920, the stone Spring Creek School stands in the flats of Spring Creek. When the school was built, Highway 209 had not yet been paved, and the area remained very isolated until the 1950s. The one-story building consists of two wings of classrooms arranged in a linear fashion on either side of a large multipurpose room with arched windows. In the 1950s, a cafeteria building of identical design to the one at the nearby Fines Creek School in Haywood County and several schools in other parts of the region was built behind the building. The building was at one point home to a small high school program until Madison County High School opened in 1974, consolidating the various high school programs that existed in various parts of the county. The building continued to educate the children of the remote Spring Creek Township at the middle school and elementary school grade levels until 1989, when it was consolidated with Hot Springs Elementary School due to declining enrollment. After falling into disrepair, the building was renovated for adaptive reuse in the early 2000s, and is now home to a community center, several small business operations, and Dave’s 209 Cafe.

Used in the blog posts 8 Secrets of Cookeville and Putnam County and Unusual Karst on Spring Creek in Overton and Jackson County, Tennessee.

Camping at Inks Lake State Park in Burnet County, Texas with the Round Rock, TX Cub Scout Pack 562 Airborne Eagle Patrol. Earlier in the day we did a patrol hike to Devil's Water Hole (one of the main attractions of the park). A small tributary called Spring Creek empties into Devil's Water Hole. Just upstream about a 1/4 mile is a small waterfall. I made a mental note; come back tonight to leverage a waxing gibbous 1/2 moon.

It was around 11:45PM as I approached the falls and there were people already there. I wasn't expecting anyone and hoped that they would be on their way out since their lights would interfere with my exposures. As I approached closer one of the two people shined their light on me and asked what I was doing. I said I was just going to take some photos and they both replied..."we are too".

So immediately we exchanged the typical photog jargon etc. They said there were done and getting ready to head out. I took two test exposures as they were heading out. When I was ready for the 3rd exposure, setting up my tripod and camera in about 3 feet of water, I noticed the ambient light level go up considerably. When I turned back to see where it was coming from I noticed the two photogs up on the trail along with another person and this person was wearing a BIG TEXAS cowboy hat. I could see the two photogs handing the ranger their ID's and immediately I thought I better get a few more snaps off before that Ranger comes down to ask for my ID because I didn't have my ID with me :)

I moved a little closer into the falls for this frame. I was so beautiful under the stars. I could have stayed all night, but I had to get back to camp with my boys :)

During our first trip to Queensland in four years, we headed south of Brisbane to Queen Mary Falls, near Killarney in the Darling Downs region.

Cloud cover was expected, and given recent rain in the Gold Coast hinterland, potentially promising conditions for waterfall photography awaited us.

From the lookout on the northern side of the falls, it is a spectacular view down into the creek below, and a 14mm lens nicely conveys the expanse of the scene.

As much as I dislike paying tolls, the plazas themselves are really neat.

Public outreach is essential to the continuing survival of fish and wildlife. Demand for adequate outreach about salmon issues and hatchery roles in mitigating for hydroelectric projects on the Columbia River is increasing. Communication builds understanding and allows people to make informed decisions about the future of our natural resources. Carson National Fish Hatchery (WA) is located in the beautiful Gifford Pinchot National Forest attracting hundreds of visitors annually. The Hatchery host an annual ADA Fishing Day and a Kid's Fishing Day each September. The facility also provides salmon eggs for "Salmon in the Classroom" in the Stevenson/Carson Schools.

UP Job YBE52 crosses over three visible, urban creeks on the KD Line on its way to either Cimco or Rock Valley Oil & Chemical in Loves Park. All three creeks have fish in them.

On this day YBE52 ran light up to Cimco on the KD Line to retrieve seven loads of scrap metal before returning to the Belvidere Subdivision in Rockford. On its return it hit a parked car in Rockford.

This view was taken where Spring Creek enters the Rock River at the riverside park. Just upstream it flows through the famous Anderson Japanese Gardens where it is part of the landscape.

I don't think Matt believed me when I said there was a 'ghost town' to have a look at.

This area caught fire at some point, I know it was a long time ago as it was like this years ago when I lived in Blenheim. Tried googling it, but can't find out what the story was.

Maybe someone that sees this knows more info?

The first, two-room portion of this house was built initially during reconstruction, in the 1860s, was expanded after coming under the ownership of the Meadows family circa 1910. The family, which had 12 children, necessitated the expansion of the structure, funded by the operation by the family of an adjacent general store, now gone. The building served as lodging for travelers from as far away as Europe during the Great Depression, and was recently restored by descendants of the Meadows family, though the store vanished due to decades of neglect. The adjacent barn is presently in poor shape, with several structural elements missing.
