Saturday Steve said "I wish we could go to Spring Creek." Spring Creek is a spring-fed crystal clear creek that runs under a low concrete Works Progress Administration bridge dated 1938. It's way out in the country, about an hour and a half away in NE Oklahoma; Steve found it while doing fish collections. We used to go now and then, but as our car got in worse shape, and gas prices went up, we had quit going.

Well, I suggested we splurge on the gas and go. I said if our car broke down, we could now call AAA from the cell phone.

So we literally threw all we needed in the car and took off. Spent a lovely day leaping off that concrete bridge into icy-cold water. It was at least 12 feet deep at the bridge and tapered down to 1' deep gentle rapids on either side.

It was a blast.
