If you've got a kayak, and a death wish, hurry on down.

(Day 84) Overflowing with spring ...
... runoff, that is. I was going to a little village near here with the intention of shooting one of the historical sites there. As I walked towards the site I heard a roaring sound that got louder and louder. I hadn't heard that sound before since this place is usually quite tranquil. I was surprised at what I saw - the normally shallow creek that meanders below a small power dam on the Rideau River had turned into a raging torrent. I had forgotten that spring runoff occurs much earlier in Ontario than in Alberta (June), and even earlier this year due to the mild weather and early spring.

Looks like the storm we're having here as I speak. I thought the winter was behind us, but I'm wrong.
Great capture!
Great water captures.
