The Ovens River

The part of the Ovens River I swim in is in Porepunkah.

I like the warm water in the summer.

The cliff I jump from has lots of trees and flowers on it.

I climb from the river up to the top of the cliff.

The water is sometimes deeper than my dad and he is around 6 foot 2.

Sometimes it is as tall as me.

The water is very strong at the drop on all the sharp rocks.

There is also a really tall tree you can climb on,

the tree has a big trunk with carvings in it,

the tree is also very close to the water.

When the river is high my brother jumps from the tree into the water.

Sometimes I lay on my back and relax in the water.

The sounds of the birds make me calm.

My brother always splashes me with the warm water.

I get back on the floaty and fall straight back in the water,

then go to the creek and look for little frogs.

I go back to the river and jump in the water.

I get cold quickly then get warm.

I get dry and play on the playground.

I get in the car then go home.
