Watery Wednesday #131: Yahoola Creek Dam

Yahoola Creek Dam, Dahlonega, Georgia. March 9, 2011.

This is my post for Watery Wednesday.  To see more of our beautiful watery world, or to join and post your own pictures to share, click HERE.

Betsy and I were driving around Dahlonega, Georgia, last Wednesday (March 9), when we crossed Yahoola Creek below the dam which forms Lake Zwerner.  The water overflowing the dam looked so pretty that I just had to stop and snap this picture.

    Nice flow of water from the dam! I’ve been out to Kinzua Dam a few times; want to see all the gates open. No luck so far.
