Re: our niagara falls trip

yes
it was a much better trip than I had anticipated
I'd been looking forward to Ithaca
it's a lovely university town with plenty of good food places to choose from
and spectacular gorges
there wasn't much water, but we did hike up a riverbed to a waterfall
it was lovely



the stone there is shale and sandstone and some of the formations look man-made with their straight lines and squares





toward the end of the hike there was a wonderful rock garden and we all got to participate

Re: our niagara falls trip

That's making me wish I had said to go to the American side. On the Canadian side there's just a bunch of casinos and things, no chance for anything natural like your first pictures.
Although we did have a bigger waterfall

Re: our niagara falls trip

can you even stand the suspense?
Of course we already knew that Terry is a nice person
he makes a fantastic breakfast too

I didn't take pics of his sun room, but I can tell you that it is both much larger and much more full of stuff than you'd suspect from his pics
the viv he made is also even nicer
well
here's the three of us



here's a pic of Mikhaila's new snake whom she named Jasper



and
you're not going to believe this (I hardly can)
this is the snake, Terry gave me


her name is Chloe

Re: our niagara falls trip

Very cool sounds like a really fun trip. Never been up there myself. Funny, those falls in Ithica are right near where my sister lives. If you follow the stream upstream for about a mile it goes through her property. She's got some really cool pics of the falls from last winter. Really pretty Maritimes you got from Terry too. Very cool looking and really good colours.
