Smith Falls
Submitted by: dmolson3
Comment by dmolson3: One of our family's favorite places to enjoy a summer vacation is tubing down the Niobrara River near Valentine, Nebraska. At the end of a hot day, we end our trip at Smith Falls State Park. A half-mile trail leads you back into an area where the air temperature drops rapidly and a cool mist from the waterfall begins to hit your face before you have even arrived at the falls. Smith Falls is the highest waterfall in Nebraska and a very pretty location.

Comment by joshua_osborn: This photo was taken at the beautiful Rawson's Mill in southern Michigan, also known as River Country. This is a tranquil and idyllic place to take a few moments out of a hectic day to be contemplative, take walk or have picnic! It is beautiful, remote and peaceful.
