Lake Lanier Dam

We took a quick little trip to Atlanta last weekend. We went to visit family and made a quick stop by the Lake Lanier Dam. We played in the water until the siren went off warning us that they were opening the dam. We hurried to the bridge where we watched the water quickly rise. Within minutes, the riverbanks we were playing on were covered in rushing water. It was quite a humbling experience to watch the peaceful river quickly turn into a powerful, rushing current. Truly humbling.
