Niagra Falls Visit 5/1/14

Now that the truck, van and trailer are all packed...time to head to our new home actually located in Crown Point Indiana (10 miles from East Chicago.  That's why we always say we live in Chicago.  Its Chicago time, news, ect.)  We set out from CT about 11:30am.  My folks and I decided between the three of us we would just drive the 15hrs straight switching drivers when needed. On our route to Chicago, we knew Niagara Falls was along the way so decided to stopped. Of course the weather didn't cooperate-it was misty and 45 degrees-freezing. The falls are just beautiful. They had not opened for the summer yet-lots of construction. Most of the walkways close to the river and falls were closed. We also discovered there is still ice at the bottom of the falls and along most of the outcroppings. Couldn't believe it! At least I got to see it one last time!
