water over the bridge

Down at "The Slab" the Middle Fork river is flowing over the road at the low water bridge. The water is clear and beautiful, home to suckers and crawdads and trout and water snakes. The road right now is dotted with live turtles (drivers are asked to move them to the side of the road they are headed) and dead possums and skunks. No armadillos yet. I guess those hatch later in the season.
