After stopping in Sisters for the quilt shop and ice cream we stopped to see the headwaters of the Metolius River. A spring under the butte empties out the side of the hill and the river begins wide and clear. No merging of little brooklets, but a full river from the start.
We counted chipmunks as we walked to the headwaters. One little, cheeky guy was bold enough to sit still about 2 yards away while I took his picture. On our way back, he might have been the one who actually ran toward us on the path. I didn't have my camera on, so I missed that photo op, but he was charming.
A fun little walk to see the birth of a river.

Cute matching, weaponed, protective boys!
I didn't pack for a hot day. I love Walmart. The shirts were $3 each.
