It has been decades since either Jeanine or I have been to Niagara Falls and it was well worth a second visit.  The sheer scale of the falls is as breathtaking as the mist induced rain was refreshing on this hot afternoon.  We enjoyed lunch atop the 520 foot tall Skylon Tower which offers exceptional views of the falls and surrounding area.

Our visit to Canada lasted only five hours. For all their natural beauty, the falls are surrounded by a tourism megalopolis which held little attraction for us. We made our way back across New York State stopping to camp very near Lock 25 on the Erie Canal.

An evening ice cream run took us into the nearby towns of Auburn and Skaneateles where I captured a nice image of my sweat heart.
