Yesterday I posted about the bridge over Penticton creek but today I’m moving about 400 metres (1300 ft) further along to where the creek empties into Okanagan Lake.

By this time of year, this creek is usually moving very slowly, desultorily, somnolently with only a little water trickling through the centre of this channel.

This year, however, it’s a regular river with lots of water and very happy trees and ducks. After years of drought, this verdant growth is wonderful to see!

And here it joins the lake, adding to the lake’s water level and giving everyone on the bridge another lovely view.

Happy Tuesday.
