Thank you for sharing.

Been a long time since I've been to Niagara.kapgarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01241253793033972435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11803058.post-8436062456071097552008-08-25T10:41:00.000-05:002008-08-25T10:41:00.000-05:00Very nice photos Jeff. Only a dork would be wearing that yellow body condom though. I prefer to spend $1000 on custom fit North Face outdoor weather gear...especially in summer. But that's just what we Pacific NW people do...VEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00730956006290504616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11803058.post-31752500880473429332008-08-24T15:59:00.000-05:002008-08-24T15:59:00.000-05:00EXCELLENT! <BR/><BR/>We weren't far from you guys, at Niagara-on-the-Lake last weekend but not with the family. Next stop, the Falls WITH the kids.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing Jeff. Great little trip with your family - and it looks like the kids wanted to be there with you too ;)Karen MEGhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10834425321020756655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11803058.post-9481340387312909332008-08-24T09:21:00.000-05:002008-08-24T09:21:00.000-05:00It's amazing to me how close you can get to the falls and how FAST the water is moving. Gravity rules!<BR/>It was also the first time I realized that Canada had a cheap commercial side to them. <BR/>...and yes I DID grow another letter.carlaehttp://carlae.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11803058.post-18591172431853138202008-08-24T01:07:00.000-05:002008-08-24T01:07:00.000-05:00Damn, someone already took my barrel gagDanhttp://www.allthatcomeswithit.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11803058.post-1893172709542172422008-08-23T21:15:00.000-05:002008-08-23T21:15:00.000-05:00You have some great looking kids!

There's certainly enough mist to cause one!<BR/><BR/>colbymarshall - Sorry, they have a strict "no barrel" policy. Regulations... bah!<BR/><BR/>mom thumb - I hope they don't forget it.

Thanks, we had a great time.<BR/><BR/>yellojkt - You know it!<BR/><BR/>sarah - I was wondering when someone was going to comment that I looked like an alien. I was kinda thinking ET.<BR/><BR/>gette - Are you going to wear matching jumpsuits? ;b I was spending money at the music store today too. We probably just missed each other.<BR/><BR/>kathy - You gotta get close enough to actually see them Kath. Then it's a bit more fun ;-)<BR/><BR/>jd - Silly... there are no stickers in these pictures.

And if you haven't been to the Dells, you really should go. The kids will LOVE it.<BR/><BR/>drowsey - Yeah, I'm curious as to why Tim Horton has made it across the border yet. We ate there once and really liked it.<BR/><BR/>teri - You don't have to wear a rain coat, and they only pass them out for the Journey Behind the Falls and the Maid of the Mist tours. My kids even took theirs off on the boat so they could get soaked. Good times!<BR/><BR/>anette - "Handsome" isn't a word I would have come up with. But thanks! ;b<BR/><BR/>sis - Wait a minute... we didn't get any shoes! We only visited the Canadian side. Was that an American side deal?<BR/><BR/>curtis - We had a GREAT time. And the cool mist of the water was welcome on a very hot day. :-)<BR/><BR/>windyridge - I agree. The fact that you can stand like 2 feet from the ledge where all the water goes over is kind of unbelievable. Like I said earlier... it gave me the willys!<BR/><BR/>teri - Exactly!Jeffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13868852480996815442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11803058.post-58184794696382392772008-08-23T08:41:00.000-05:002008-08-23T08:41:00.000-05:00Ha! Love the Timmy's sign; proof positive you were on the Canadian side. <BR/><BR/>I would love to see the falls, but whilst my family is peering dangerously over the edge, I fear I would be the one backing away in terror.Maureenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01797167028822330935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11803058.post-35567038877940408802008-08-23T08:38:00.000-05:002008-08-23T08:38:00.000-05:00There are shoes?

My favorite spot was just at the top right next to the bar, as close to the falls as you could get up there. The power and volume of all that water was amazing.<BR/>I see you went to Ripley's. Fun place.

You forgot to tell the best part. Not only do you get to wear the yellow suit and stand in a hundred mile an hour wind spray, but hanging onto the railing you try and walk up stairs against the wind, looking over the edge down into swirling waters, but when it's all done, you get to keep the shoes! And a beautiful pair of shoes they are. I love to wear them everywhere because they have "Niagara Falls" written all over them!! sisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11803058.post-12920857105962582592008-08-23T05:41:00.000-05:002008-08-23T05:41:00.000-05:00I would love to see that!!
