Niagara Falls in Winter

March 11, 2015:   After the coldest February on record in western NY, we wanted to see the "frozen" Niagara Falls.  I've visited Niagara Falls several times over my life, but never in winter.  So we decided to go before things thawed out too much.  

We didn't see all the frozen mist on the trees that we'd heard about on the news, but what we did see was pretty awesome and impressive anyway.

An awesome sight and a great day!
