Below the Center Hill Dam where it runs into the Caney Fork River. If you look closely at the rocks near the water's edge you can make out some kind of water fowl. Not sure what that was.

Center Hill Marina

We took a road trip this past Saturday on the back roads around Center Hill Lake. Terry took this shot of the Center Hill Marina at Cove Hollow. We were driving at the time. We stopped on the side of the road and Terry took the picture from the truck window with my wide angle lens. I love the colors in this shot!

Me, Terry and our longtime friend, Danny Kilpatrick, took a short
road trip yesterday afternoon. We drove the back roads of Smith
county and ended up at the Center Hill dam. This pretty Mallard
duck was sitting on one of the rocks sticking up out of the water.
Soon after I snapped his picture, he was on his way. It was a fun
weekend filled with lots of laughs, which I really need these days!

Edgar Evins State Park

Terry & I took a short road trip up to Edgar Evins State park on
New Year's eve day. I took these pictures at one of the boat ramps
inside the park. It was a gorgeous day!

Oh Deer!

We stopped in the middle of the road to get this shot of a deer.
I took this picture out the window of the Jeep on our way back
from the lake.

Picture Postcards from Center Hill

Terry took this picture of Center Hill Dam from the overlook.


The backwaters.

middle of the river.

Old Barn

We found this cool, old barn in a field off the Buffalo Valley Nature
trail at Center Hill Lake.

Saturday Hike

Me and T went on a roadtrip out in the country this past Saturday.
It was a gorgeous day to go out and explore. While driving on a
back road we found this old gate. The sign on top says Center Hill
Lake.


We found a trail and started walking to see where it would take
us. After walking a long distance, we finally ended up at the back
waters of Center Hill Lake. You can see the little boat dock in the
upper left of the picture. We also saw a man and two kids enjoying
a day of fishing. I bet they were wondering where we came
from :0)




The view looking back toward the trail. It was a fun day and an
enjoyable hike. It was also fun discovering a place we had never
been before. I hated to see the day end.

Stuff Growing on a Tree

Yesterday was an absolutely gorgeous day!
With temps in the mid 60's, me and T headed
out in the Jeep. We ended up on a hiking trail
near Center Hill Lake. Walking through the woods
we came upon this tree. Not sure if these are
'shrooms or some kind of fungus. Whatever it was
it was interesting looking.


Close up of mushroom/fungus. More Center Hill hiking pictures
to come :0)

N0t sure what all those block pillars are. Terry think it's
the remnants of an old bridge.

Center Hill Lake

My road trip took me down to the Center Hill Dam.


There's a lot of work going on at the dam because of a seepage
problem.
