always go whitewater paddling on Duck Creek, and if you're interested in hydro structures, you can visit Boyd Lake Dam. The amount of rainfall that falls at Boyd Lake is close to the national average; during the month of May you get
the most rain around here, and January meanwhile is the driest month. This lake is so wonderful. A lake close by is Sands Lake; a nice spot for whitewater paddling is Rowlett Creek.

... and up to Lavon Dr./78 is probably the cleanest and most scenic with pleanty of tree coverage and rock formations on both sides that sort of remind me of parts of the Guadalupe.
