bull sluice

me and dog went out to the river to check out the gold branch unit, on the west side of bull sluice lake --- the lake got its name from the way the river narrowed between two hills, which is of course where they built morgan falls dam --- there was never a morgan falls prior to the dam, only bull sluice --- quiet and solitude except for a gaggle of european tourists chattering along, thankfully in the opposite direction --- i hope the tick that i pulled off the back of my neck just now is the only one i brought home
