Image Description: This rippling water at the base of some rocks is just crying out for a toe dip. Water that is just lapping at the bank always makes for such a nice, relaxing place to cool off during a warm summer day. The transparency of this water makes it look clean and fresh; although it is very important to boil standing water before drinking. The moss growing down the sides of the rocks suggests that the area is a generally cool, damp place, and care should be taken when stepping out onto the moss; it can be quite slippery. The water in this picture is in a shallow area that would not be suitable for diving, but would be wonderful for floating and waddling around with friends, and standing at a safe depth for children to wade in.
