Creek

Creek at Pioneer Park in Stayton Oregon

I dug into my non-published photo archives today for a photo I took last July of the small creek which runs next to Pioneer Park.

As I think I've pointed out in the past, the creek is actually called Salem Ditch, since it's a ditch which runs between Stayton and Salem. I don't know how much of it is man made and how much of it is natural. I don't really care. I just know it's pretty for a ditch.

Sorry about the non-recent photo... I haven't been feeling well this last week, so my photo taking has been limited. As soon as my body cooperates, I'll go back out there and annoy the townsfolk with my camera once again.

Beautiful ditch! The sky reflected on the water make it look so inviting. Do people swim here?

Thanks for all the comments, everyone.

Felicia, it's not very deep, so swimming isn't an option. But it is fun to splash around in. :)
