Living in New Orleans means that in just a bit over an hour’s drive, I can be flattening my brain waves lazing in a beautiful sandy edged gravel bottomed cool creek, with dragonflies hovering, birds singing and water burbling. Picnicking on the beach is a must. Napping in the shade too. And exploring, soaking, floating, balancing, and playing. Ahhhhh.
Hi, I’m Carla.

Sounds like paradise
Sounds like my Caledonia here in southern PA
Love that place! Spent an afternoon there when I was thru hiking the Appalachian Trail! A little more crowded, at least the part I saw – lots of picnickers and a great pool and snack bar too – but I sat by the creek with my feet in it for about 30 minutes while I chatted with my husband. And I had ice cream too! Happy memories!
What I want to know is how you took that shot without falling, which is surely what would’ve happened to me.
It wasn’t too high – so not scary!
Great Photo – love putting my feet in water:)
Looks and sounds idyllic.
Yes. So wonderful. Figuring out when I’m going to get out there for one or two nights soon.
Sounds lovely.
Thank you – it is wonderful!
