Views from Niagara Falls, NY (September 14-16, 2022)

One of our favorite places to visit, Niagara Falls is just magnificent and magical. In fact there are not enough adjectives to really describe it. A few photos here and there from around the area. Had a wonderful time and in fact in this and previous visits has never been anything else.

Did not visit during the height of the tourist season and that makes for an even better experience. We had a great visit and wonderful time. 

 

Cleveland Waterfront and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (September 13, 2022)

Very cool trip to Cleveland, part of a bigger journey. First stop was the house from the movie (and a favorite movie of mine) "A Christmas Story". Leg lamp is below. Went to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Museum, but visited some sights around Lake Erie as well. Final five photos were taken in the museum. 

Very interesting area to see. We have been through the city but never have stopped. Had a great time there, and very happy to have made the visit.  

 

Random Shots September 3, 2022)

Yesterday we went to Deeds Park to see the Fountains one more time. They will be turned off for the season on Monday. One of our favorite places to visit in the city. Below is the bridge to the city at the park, and a statue of the Wright Brothers can be seen in photo 4. 

Photo three was taken this morning at the lakes near my house, bottom photo was a few days ago also near my house. Enjoying September 2022 so far! 

 

Cincinnati and the Hard Rock Casino (August 25, 2022)

Nice exploring Cincinnati, Ohio while visiting the Hard Rock Casino there. A lot of interesting historic items, as well as some really good food actually. Many casinos the food is so-so, but here it is really good. 

Wandered around town for a while, always fun to explore Cincinnati by foot as there is much to see. Many old building and even a monument to a former (and Ohio born) President (of which there has been a few). 

As to the items in the museum, these are just a few. Clothes, cars and of course guitars. Lots of interesting history. In the upcoming weeks, will be exploring a lot of rock and roll history due to a trip planned in the near future. 

As always, thank you for visiting my page and hope you return in the near future!   

 

Miami County Fair (August 16, 2022)

Yes, that is a real Rabbit! In fact according to the owner holding it...16 pounds of Bunny! Wife and I went to the Miami County Fair which is held in Troy, Ohio. Enjoy going to this fair, and we have been a number of times since I have been living in Ohio. Fun seeing the animals, the farm equipment, seeing the rides (did not ride any, they opened later) and enjoying the fantastic (if not so healthy but what the hell) food to be found there. It is a favorite place to visit this time of year, and a wonderful event. One of the best walks I have taken this year!    

 

Dayton Air Show (July 30, 2022)

Great time with my wife and around 40,000 friends at the Dayton Air Show, at the Dayton International Airport. Great time and some remarkable aircraft including some amazing flying by The Blue Angels. Heat was not bad, humidity was very low and we had a great time watching the planes in the air, and checking out the many ground displays to be seen. 

Been to a lot of air shows in my day, always have been a huge fan of aviation, and this was a fantastic experience. 

 

Maine! (July 10-17, 2022)

First ever trip to the State of Maine, with a few stops along the way. Due to the problems the airlines are having decided to drive, and a beautiful if long (981 miles, one way) it was. I had never been there though my wife was stationed there during her Navy service. Enjoyed seeing the amazing sights, got my first ever Lobster Roll (twice in fact) and also enjoyed the history to be found there. It is a remarkable and beautiful place and after visiting I can see going back in the future. On the way home, we made a stop at a favorite place. Niagara Falls is always worth a stop.
