Near Death in Chattanooga
This is a really nice picture of my wife as she sits on a stone wall with Chatanooga in the background. But this is also a picture of when I thought she had only seconds to live. As with every pic, there is a story…
Fun Frozen Falls Day Trip
I prepared this map and itinerary for a frozen fall day trip in the Buffalo and Niagara region. We had been hit with a rather significant cold spell and this is the best time to see waterfalls at their winter glory. Unfortunately for us, the…
