"When the spring rains would come, my brother and I, and some of our neighborhood friends, would throw on rain coats, boots and umbrellas. We'd watch a river of water, that usually started as a flooded drain on Oak Street, flow down the hill towards the lake," one reader wrote in.

"It was always exciting to see just how much eater was pouring down the waterfall," she added. "The magic part would be, when it rained so much that the waterfall would really look like white water rapids to us kids. Some springtime adventure in Birmingham!"
