Isaqueena Falls

I went hiking this weekend about 8 miles from my home in Walhalla, SC, and I just thought you might enjoy this picture:


That's the view of the waterfall after hiking down to the bottom of it. After we hiked at Isaqueena Falls, we visited Stumphouse Tunnel. I'm ashamed to say that after living in Walhalla for 21 years, this was the first time I had ever been to Isaqueena Falls and the Stumphouse Tunnel.

"Rivers are magnets for the imagination, for conscious pondering and subconscious dreams, thrills and fears. People stare into the moving water, captivated, as they are when gazing into a fire. What is it that draws and holds us? The rivers' reflections of our lives and experiences are endless. The water calls up our own ambitions of flowing with ease, of navigating the unknown. Streams represent constant rebirth. The waters flow in, forever new, yet forever the same; they complete a journey from beginning to end, and then they embark on the journey again." (Tim Palmer)
