I can’t seem to get enough of fresh air so I headed for Anderson Dam the other day. It’s been a lot of talk about the dam because of the excess rain water that threatens the reservoir dam. It has a crack and therefore it has to be emptied as much as possible day in and out….

my oh my , it sure is beautiful here…breathtaking…

the water was very brown but cause of all the rain…this area got more of rain in a couple of days than they usually get in a year….

I hiked the lake view trail and

the grey pine trail…

 I did see some brown ones…they are sooo big….

even the lake was filled to the brim…and more

the dam is only supposed to be 68% full , anymore than that and the dam could fail under the pressure of too much water during an earthquake of magnitude 7.5 or stronger….

further down where they are releasing the water…

fresh air, friendly people, freedom to move around and fantastic nature.It doesn’t get much better than this.
