Can't find blood.

I look back down in that Creek bottom.

So I go back down in the Creek.

He had, he had come down, crossed the Creek, went up and turned around and went right back down into the Creek bottom.

And I found good blood on the rocks down there.

Cause it's kind of granite.

And he, he went another like half a mile in that Creek bottom.

No shit.

So I went South and I was running away from it a little bit and I was still ahead of it.

And then I pulled in this deep water Creek with a campsite and laid in that deep water Creek for like an hour.

And we were just cracking lightning all around us.

And you know, there's nothing I could do.

By the water in the water.

Was it creek? Creek? It was creek.

Okay.

Yeah.

Creek.

But it was like a different use of creek than we normally use.

Remember we talked about this at that time, like what the word creek means in America? Yes.

A biblical idea, as Jack Rabbit points out.

It's a hot one today too.

And I came back in the trees to kind of get away from the wind, but I am regretting that decision a little bit because it's a, it's very buggy, especially being backed by the Creek and stuff, you know, all that water evaporates off the Creek whenever it's hot and kind of just goes right into the air.

But yeah, I'm looking forward to it.

The rest of the day should be pretty all right.

That's where you can die, and a lot of people do.

Actually, I think that weekend that I flipped out and almost drowned, I think two people did unfortunately die.

And, uh, I don't think the same area where I flipped out, I think a little bit further down the Creek, but there's strainers all over the place in Floyd's Fork.

And if you, uh, are not extremely careful and mindful of the water conditions, you can die just like that.

She's really become my anchor.

I have an Oak tree in a Creek and we love a water feature.

I know you love a water feature.

I love a water feature.

These are typically high elevation areas.

with low timber values and because they're high elevation areas, you know, and, and erosive soils in many cases, these roads have a tendency to fall off the hillsides and, and typically right below the road is a Creek.

So we're causing water quality problems, increasing water filtration costs for downstream communities, all so that we can lose money on a timber sale.

It's just, it's, it's just completely illogical.

Depending on who you ask either in the year 1871 or 1872 The Ashmores moved from Troy, New York to Richmond Indiana but two years later Charles bought a farm in nearby Quincy which he and his family settled on.

Right next to their farmhouse there was a creek Which brought the family their fresh cold spring water no matter what the season around nine o'clock on this particular evening the night of November 9th 1878 Well, the family all sat by the fire after supper Either conversing or possibly reading a book as a family Or some type of entertainment That happened in the late 1800s charles ashmore jr got up From the fire and informed the Family he was going to fetch himself A bit of water from the Creek he grabbed a clean Tin can from the kitchen and Walked out of the house After waiting a very long Time for the younger charles To return from the stream the Elder charles His father took the oldest Daughter martha with Him lit a lantern and went Off in search of the young man It was early november and a light Snow had fallen outside And though it lent greatly To the terrible cold both Martha and charles senior felt right Down to their very bones it didn't Deter them It seemed the snow Was a blessing in disguise however As in its light dusting All along the ground it formed A path a path which showed The footprints of 16-year-old charles Ashmore Jr Father and daughter teamed dutifully Followed the path the entire time Calling out the young Man's name called In avail as There was no returned response And the tracks led to nowhere Literally They led Nowhere This is the story Of the one as a shipping Manager he's running the dock Stocking supplies and making Sure every order goes Out on time and granger Helps him stay prepared From shipping Supplies to ppe to hand Tools he counts On grainger to keep products Moving and trucks rolling So his operation runs Smoothly No matter the shift Call 1-800-GRAINGER Click GRAINGER.com Or just stop By Grainger For the ones Who get it done Dave Portnoy here Football is Here and so Is DraftKings The DraftKings Sports app is now Live in all 50 states From Texas to California To Florida and this September DraftKings Has given customers the Opportunity to Get boosted Every football Game day Every game Day all month Long DraftKings Customers Can get a profit boost On select Football games New DraftKings Customers Sign up With code KATZDK Spend five Bucks and get 200 In total rewards Within 21 days Includes all markets That's Code KATZDK In partnership With DraftKings The crown Is yours Event trading Offered by DraftKings Predictions A CFTC registered Futures commission Merchant Trading involves Risk of loss Market availability Varies Eligibility restrictions Apply $50 in Non-withdrawable predictions Dollars issued Every seven Days via click To claim for 21 days Predictions dollars Expire in one Year One football Boost per customer Maximum trade Limits and Restrictions apply Tokens expire At the end of The final Select game Each day When offered Nationwide Based on sportsbook Predictions and Or free-to -play sports Contests Availability varies By state Terms at dkng.co slash Offer Footprints of the Young charles Ashmore Junior stopped in the Middle of the way From the House to the Stream.

The snow was Undisturbed after They had walked About 75 feet Halfway from Their front door To the creek Where they Got their Water.

Now as this Came to the Father's Attention he Silenced his Daughter and Calmly held Out his Lantern into The darkness Of the Night.

You could Only imagine The stars Shining as Bright as they Can only Late at Night on a Farm out in The middle of Nowhere full Of fresh air A sky as Dark as An abyss.

They made Their way Around These footprints And then onto The creek.

Now as they Approached the Creek it said That all the Strength was Immediately drained From young Martha Ashmore and The same can Be said for The heir and Her father's Lungs when they Chanced upon What they saw Next.

The creek Was frozen Over and Had been for Some time.

He told me not to worry as it would be unlikely that we would encounter any fire Pokemon along our way.

To me, that is just because of the fact that driving from Jasper to where they are starting their hike is at a place called Steel Creek Campground.

steel creek campground is where the old river trail begins steel creek campground steel creek campground specifically too is actually one of the only places in the area that you could take a jaco pop-up camper which is something he talks about in the beginning of the chapter i'm pretty sure steel creek was around or that campground was around too when they were making their journey.

So there's at least a chance that they might've stayed there at one point in time, but there are three, there's three major trails in the area.

Like I've hiked them all.

The old river trail literally follows the Buffalo national river.

And it goes all the way up to Hemden hollow old river trail begins at steel Creek campground.

Well, it doesn't begin there, but there's like a gap.
