8.26.08 Bluff Hole

Let's hold hands and walk down memory lane...

When i was in high school in Searcy, Arkansas we would often drive out a county road to the little town of Letona, Population 201. (it's 201 now. i dont recall what it was 30 years ago) if you knew where to go, which road and where to turn you could find Bluff Hole. This was a little swimming hole way back off a farmers grain field. the water was mostly knee deep except below the large bluff outcropping. if you were gutsy enough you could climb up and jump off into the pool below. i think the water at it's deepest was about 9-10 feet. the height of the cliff was about 50 feet.




Today i went back out to see if my memory of the event was enlarged by time. It's still a very very long drop! exactly as i remembered it.
