My goodness that is extremely dry considering that you say the river is normally fifty to sixty feet wide. An excellent capture. V Barbara

I don't think it will ever be like it was. Our days of plentiful water are coming to an end. Climate change and over-population will do us all in, in the end. V

Depressing to all who know it when it is filled. It has a fascination despite the sad reality. Been there, here where I live.
