A Note About This Blog

I used to be a writer. Unpublished, but a writer just the same. I have several 100,000 word novels sitting on my hard drive. Then I fell off a horse and got a concussion that scrambled my brains really good (yes, I was wearing a helmet.) After that forming a written sentence was very difficult for quite some time. It's still difficult, but at least now generally the sentence structure isn't egregiously flawed. Verbally and written wrong words pop in, I switch words around, and sometimes I make no sense at all. It isn't because I don't have knowledge of grammar and punctuation, but my brain simply can't do it sometimes. Reading this blog you're accepting that there's going to be things that look like typos or make no sense. It's not because I don't proofread, it's because my damaged brain doesn't see what's wrong. I try my best, but things will slip through. I don't need them pointed out, I know they're there, but if I continued to worry about them I wouldn't write at all. I didn't for quite some time. It's painful as a past master of words to use them so badly, but fortunately the words don't seem to mind.

Connecticut Part 4: Going back to CT

This waterfall was somewhere between Lockport and Buffalo and should have been in the last post
So now we are at the day of my dear friends wedding. I'll spare you the details, other than that I am beyond happy for her that she's finally found someone. The reception was on Grand Island where I got this cool shot:

Bridges to Buffalo
After that we splurged and got a hotel room in Canada with a view of the falls. However, due to fog it wasn't much of a view. Much better the next morning, but it was still grey and not pretty out.

We did the View Behind the Falls, where you go down in an elevator and there's tunnels behind the Canadian Falls. You can hear/feel the water pounding when you're down there and it was seriously cool.






Wearing my totally sexy poncho


I bought maple candy and viewed the falls from the top and then we were on our way home. But we got distracted and hit a couple more waterfalls

Pitt's Falls

Chittenango Falls
One of the awesome parts of this trip is I'm significantly down in elevation from home, so I feel like I'm extremely fit. That last fall I had to walk down to the bottom of from the top and I ran my way back up. Seriously. I can't run five feet at home elevation (7000')
