In the midst of a hot summer nothing is more refreshing than a visit to the creek. The water is icy cold so a quick way to cool off is to take a dip. However, just sitting in the shade and drinking in the visual cool beauty of the scenery is relaxing and refreshing. You can wade in the water, swim or just skip rocks across the surface.
Another pleasant way to enjoy the creek is to take a picnic lunch. With good food and cold drinks you will soon be ready for a nap. I don't suggest a nap at the creek though because then you would be missing the beauty you went to enjoy.
The best way to enjoy the creek is to take bunch of kids along.
They not only cool down but get plenty of exercise and expend much of their energy. Not only are they fun to watch but they bring back old childhood memories of fun at the creek. Whether you join in their games or just relax and watch them you will leave refreshed.
