[EarthNSky <erthnsky AT bellsouth.net>]

The watershed is huge and covers three states.  Obviously, I live in the 
upper Coosa Basin, the part in NW Georgia.  My yard water drains into 
Rocky Creek, which drains into Armuchee Creek, which goes to the 
Oostanaula River, which joins with the Etowah to become the Coosa River, 
which in turn drains into the Mobile River, into Mobile Bay, and finally 
the Gulf of Mexico.

The first link has some nice pictures taken within 15 miles of me.  In 
fact, I was standing in that little grove of trees on the riverbank just 
yesterday in Rome.  There is a paddle event today and Ron is racing down 
there in the ErthNSky as I type.  That picture is about 100 feet from 
the finish line. (13.5 mile race)  We went down for Waterfest VIII last 
night---pretty fun.
