Beaches Quotes
When I was a girl, all we knew was this neighborhood, ... The beaches were ?whites only.? So Turkey Creek is where we went to fish, pick blackberries, recreate. Oftentimes you could see old people walking down to Turkey Creek with their cane poles in their hands. Churches had no pools inside for baptisms then?we all walked down to the creek and waited until the crowd got there.

Area Quotes
What has made Middle Creek so vital to waterfowl is its habitat diversity. Middle Creek is a shining example of progressive wildlife management. Through wildlife plantings, habitat enhancements, and wetland creation and manipulation, Middle Creek has been molded into an area that now rivals the Susquehanna River in waterfowl appeal. It has evolved into a waterfowl oasis in a section of the Atlantic Flyway dominated by intensive farming and development.

Areas Quotes
Since we all live in a watershed, we need to be aware of the conservation practices that are installed and areas that need to be improved. Buckeye Creek is an excellent opportunity for farmers, urban residents, city and school to work together to improve their natural resource concerns.

Bed Quotes
Now that they have decided to not come so close to personal property, I don't think any of us in Grandview have as many issues to discuss with the developer. As long as the creek remains within its nature bed and as long as the tree cover and wood remain intact, the majority of our complaints have been answered.

Broke Quotes
Buffalo Creek was caused by a lake up on a hill that literally broke loose and washed down and just literally took out a community. I was down there the day after the disaster, and it was, I've never seen anything like it. Not only did it wreck the community, but it threw it other places. People were running around, who did survive, lots didn't. But, people were running around looking for their homes.

Ahead Quotes
We are gearing up for very heavy rainfall between midnight and 3 a.m., today. There will be a second storm on New Year's Day, but not as intense as the prior one. We will continue to monitor the river, Napa Creek and its tributaries. The most critical area is the Behrens area. We encourage the public to go ahead with their planned holiday activities, but to keep informed about the weather. Listen to updates and check the city's Web site.

Along Quotes
I think the Cleghorn area has a lot of potential for things like fly-fishing classes along the creek or a sporting-dog training area. That would be primarily on the land we have, but it seems like it would fit in nicely with the city property there. Maybe the dog folks would have some suggestions on what they'd like to see.

Age Quotes
'Stand By Me' was really great for me and my buddies; we'd all watch that together because that was us - we were down in the creek and hanging out every day and going on little adventures. I had about sixteen friends who are all about the same age as me and lived in a three-block radius. We spent our entire childhood down in that creek.

Bringing Quotes
We've got to do something. Fowler Park has the Pioneer Village and camping on the lake, which was its drawing card. Now it's not. If you watch most campers today, they have modern, up-to-date equipment. It's not bringing a tent and roughing it. Prairie Creek with electrical hookups has no primitive sites, like Fowler or Hawthorn.

Birds Quotes
Toward sunset, waterfowl by the thousands converge on the main impoundment, so long as there's open water. The sunset return and sunrise liftoff are about the only movements we can predict snow geese and tundra swans will make. When they may arrive, where they go to feed and how long they stay at Middle Creek are strictly up to the birds and closely related to weather conditions.

Across Quotes
Because it had gotten into the waterway, we used absorbent booms and pads to block it from going any farther and soak up the diesel fuel. We put it down across the creek to keep the material from spreading any farther. We tried to contain it in as small an area as possible. Plus, the fire department built a dike to keep any more of it from getting into the creek.

Enjoy Quotes
People don't enjoy violence in real life, but they love it in their movies. And I think a lot of studio horror movies don't want to offend anybody. If there's anything that's too far out there, they test it and if it offends people, they take it out. But Open Water , Wolf Creek , The Devil's Rejects - these are movies made outside of the studio system, that don't have a happy ending. (The studios and critics) forget that that's what people are paying for - to be terrified and disturbed.
