Maybe I should explain. Sone history perhaps..
When I was but a wee child we would frequent the land.
It is, as I have said, the most spectacular place.
As a wee child, I had a frequent rash on my face, most embarasing!
There is a creed that flows threw... 1000 square mile watershed, so you can imagine the massive flash floods that come through.
My siblings and I would play in the mud (quick sand) left behind by the floods. Totally cured my rash... life at last!
In this place the humidity is rather low, so the water flowing after the floods was cold, and the air hot.
The creek bed is mostly sandstone. Made a prety need slide (kinda like Oak Creak in Arizona). We would body surf down the creek untill we were so cold we could not stand erect for the shivering! Then we would lay down on the sand stone slabs on the banks. The sun is so hot dry time was not long.
Our hair was white, and our skin was a dark brown. Now my skin is white and my hair is brown. I guess I've come full circle. Time to return for the the cure that ails me!
Down streem a bit is a large spring (I've only seen it dry once in my lifetime, I would elaborate on that odity, but that would require a digress that would go on and on). We went there to either jump off of the 10 foot clifts into very cold water, then later lay on the oposing beach to dry. I've caught 7lb catfish out of that spring... good eating for later.
I've got to go back to set things right.
