Found a Creek on the Harpeth River 10.3 miles
Put in at Highway 70 Bridge, Take Out at Harris Street Bridge
Temperature started at 79, ended day at 85 degrees
Elapsed Time 3:32, Avg Speed 3.9 mph, Max Speed 16.8 mph
It's been very hot and humid, and we've had no rain. But, Nashville had a sudden storm and flash floods, and that water has to go somewhere. It ended up going into the Harpeth River and the river rose from 1 foot to 3 foot. With the temperatures dropping and less humidity, we headed to the Harpeth River. I had intended to do a blog entry about the 'hazards' on a river. But, it was such an absolutely beautiful day and we also were able to paddle up a stream that we had never been up before. We were also able to paddle directly up to the falls - first time ever. So, here are photos instead of our beautiful day.

| Look how clear the water is in this stream! |
 |
| Climbed under this fallen tree and we found a beautiful stream. |
 |
| This gar was also enjoying the stream. |
 |
| Look at that huge tree. Nature is amazing. |
 |
| Left a cairn. |
 |
| With no humidity, the colors even seemed crisper. |
 |
| Fun by the waterfall. |
 |
| We both enjoyed paddling right in front of it! |
 |
| WooHoo! |
