#2 Trees

We are almost down to the bottom and to the creek. The creek is to the left of this frame, up against that hill.

#4 We made it to the creek.

You just cannot see it. lol. But what you do see is an orange covered hill on the opposite side of the creek. From here you can hear the creek rushing and the dogs splashing.

#5 Orange daisies

are what these are. So pretty, but I cannot get closer the brush and creek are just below. 

#6 We walked along the creek

for about a half of a mile before there was a clearing that you could actually see Pine Valley Creek. 

My son decided this would be a great place for our first break. I thought so too. Nice and shady, the water is like ice and very clear. You cannot tell but there is a current here.
