Niagara Falls


Life with me is never dull that's for sure. It's always an adventure as I hear from anyone close to me. And this weekend was no different. There is a story behind this comment, but I'm in no mood to write about it. Niagara Falls was as magnificent as always, aside from the not so brilliant weather. The wind was like a hurricane and the clouds and drizzly mist made for a cold, wet experience. But standing next to the Falls is always a moment to stare in awe. The sheer power of that volume of water rushing over such an enormous area is truly one of nature's greatest productions. The sound of the rushing water is like a dull freight train in the background that never stops. I got to thinking...this waterfall has been roaring like this for thousands of years and every day it just keeps on going in a never-ending flood. It makes a person feel pretty small and insignificant in the big picture.

So, what happened before Niagara Falls? We ran out of time today on the phone.... goodness, we're so far behind, we could fill a year of "coffees" or lunches.

Agreed...that story will have to wait for a meet & greet!
