This is the beginning Day on Collins Hill Road at Channings Lake in Lawrenceville, Gwinnett County, Georgia.
These are some friends who came to wish me well. As you can see the river starts as a discharge from a spring fed lake at this subdivision. Two other springs feed into it within 100 feet just before It goes through a concrete culvert under Collins Hill Road.
