Quarry Falls-12013 viewsFrom the shoreline of Watauga Lake, Watauga, TN.

The falls is supplied by a Quarry just over the hill and out of sight. We have many springs and creeks in this area and this particular one is in a quarry.

Erwin's Best2089 viewsEven in low water conditions Martin's Creek Falls, just up the creek from BJ's home town of Erwin, TN, shows off.

I just remembered why I love this part of our great nation.........of course I was thinking of BJ, don't think I would get all squishy about a creek running over a rock, do you?
