Hollins Mill Black Water Creek &quot;Nothing in the world is more flexible and yielding than water. Yet when it attacks the firm and the strong, none can withstand it, because they have no way to change it. So the flexible overcome the adamant, the yielding overcome the forceful. Everyone knows this, but no one can do it.” Lao Tzu

Beauty is primeval “Beauty is a primeval phenomenon, which itself never makes its appearance, but the reflection of which is visible in a thousand different utterances of the creative mind, and is as various as nature herself.” Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
dreamers of the dream “We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of the dream. Wandering by lone sea breakers, and sitting by desolate streams. World losers and world forsakers, for whom the pale moon gleams.&quot; Arthur William Edgar O'Shaughnessy
Approaching Faster waters In an age when man has forgotten his origins and is blind even to his most essential needs for survival, water along with other resources has become the victim of his indifference” Rachel Carson At the base of Crabtree Falls: Crabtree Falls is famous for its connection to the well-known television show The Waltons.

photographer's adventure “It is a peculiar part of the good photographer's adventure to know where luck is most likely to lie in the stream, to hook it, and to bring it in without unfair play and without too much subduing it.” James Agee (American Writer and Critic, 1909-1955)
Bridge over the James at Eagle Rock “Sometimes, if you aren't sure about something, you just have to jump off the bridge and grow your wings on the way down.” Danielle Steel Where I am standing is on a bridge that was washed out by a flood. I am on part of the bridge that remains. The broken bridge I am on predates the American Civil War. It was used by mules to drag wagons of lime and iron ore to a foundry on my right which is also outdated and abandoned. The flood I believe happened in the 1970's and nearly washed Eagle Rock off the map. The old bridge was replaced by this one.
