ABC Wednesday--W is for...

If you came from my mistaken McLinky looking for X, go here to find it. W is great, too.
 .


ABC Wednesday Round 5 is brought ot you today by the letter W. Here today
W is for waterfall. See what W means for others on the ABC list here.


You can have your Niagara, your Victoria, and any of a number of glorious waterfalls. Here today it is those serendipitous trickles in the desert, or those that appear as the snow melts in the moutnains. The waterfalls that you may see today but may be missing tomorrow as the source dries up or the weather turns cold again.

...like this one seen from inside the bridge at Tonto Natural  Bridge State Park in Arizona.


This fall in Zion National Park striking the rocks below is also seen from behind.

...from the side...

or from below.























When the snow melts in the Cascades, there is a waterfall around every corner--like this one at Mt. Rainier.

Watch for the water--precious water. Where does it fall near you?

There are a lot of seasonal waterfalls near here and I, too, have always found them truly fascinating. Each year, a different style. These are beautiful! Merry Christmas!

So beautiful! There's a magic to waterfalls like this.

I'm sorry to be so late visiting, and I didn't manage a post of my own. But I'd like to thank you on behalf of the ABC Team.
