I love the sounds and the power of pounding water, whether it is the waves or a waterfall. Mike May

I live right by the Atlantic Ocean. I cannot imagine a day going by without seeing some body of water.

I'm a water lover too.  Sacramento has two rivers flowing through it, The American, and The Sacramento.  We also have several nearby lakes.  I'm also an avid swimmer, and find my way to the health club swimming pool on a regular basis.

Steffy Hristova we live on water as well. It is our water source, too. I am grateful every day for the sights, the sounds and the health that it offers us! 

Jeffrey DiMuria 321.223.6253 Waves Realty it's in our blood, for some of us, me included! 

Myrl Jeffcoat swimming is so good for you! Katherine Hepburn would swim in the ocean almost every day, way into her 80's if I recall correctly. Went swimming in the St. Lawrence River off of Lake Erie this summer with a bunch of women relatives and friends. Glorious! 

Kristin Johnston - REALTOR® I was just noticing how much louder Fishhawk Creek is this AM due to rains....a wonderful rushing sound, different from our dry summer with very quiet tumbling waters. You understand the power through all of your senses!

Good morning Gayle. Your photo is fabulous and the quotes are meaningful too.

It upsets me that we do so little to protect our resources including the drive to free up protected land so that the fossil fuel industry can do more to destroy beauty and clean drinking water.

Sheila Anderson this gushing waterfall is in a small historical town called Prospect in Oregon. It's about a 1/2 hour from Crater Lake, a natural lake that is spectacular. So glad that you like the photo and quotes.

Joe Pryor I couldn't agree more. Just had a conversation recently about our waters on our precious planet and what if we run out?? Fossil fuels can't keep us all hydrated and our lands irrigated.

Gayle,

We see the ocean from our office window and from our balcony...we see it as we drive on the freeway to do our errands.  We never tire of that glorious sight.  A

Water has played a part in the best memories of my entire life, Ron and Alexandra Seigel and we are lucky to have it so close by to view every single day. I never take water for granted.

Hi Gayle- and what a lovely photo!  It's funny but just this morning on our walk by the beach, Larry and I paused to hear the sound of gentle swells hitting the beach.

Love the sound of water, either at the beach or in a creek/waterfall. Our desire is a home on a lake. Sure you could help us with that.

Hi Gayle - Wonderful photo and nice quotes. Not living on the water anymore has been the biggest adjustment of our recent move - we really miss it.

Hi Gayle Rich-Boxman Fishhawk Lake Real Estate , I love the water. The only water view I have is my pool so I have to drive to it.

Hi Gayle - I have our backyard fountain going non-stop and it's so wonderful to hear the sounds of water and to enjoy all the critters that stop by to take a drink and splash around! I have another fountain on a side patio and I can't wait until the weather cools down a bit so I can hear that fountain while having morning coffee and catching up on a little news or reading.

I did not know that Katherine Hepburn was such an avid swimmer.  I learned something new today.  Water - especially swimming in it, seems to have a way of washing the barnacles off the mind.

Hi Gayle, another perfect capture of a lovely scene. You did the spot and waterfall justice. Bet that trail is going to be magnificent in a few weeks with all the Fall colors. Happy Saturday to you and Larry. D

"The Elixir of Life" - I LOVE that and like you, I'm a water person and will definitely be retiring by the water, Gayle. There's something so relaxing and refreshing at the same time, about water. And, I love that your lake is your water source also - that's so unusual in our area!

Happy Saturday!

There IS something special about water, Gayle, apart from the fact we need it to survive. Sometimes we just don't appreciate it.
