Sunday, October 19, 2008, a truck stop somewhere about 200 miles north of Cincinnati, Ohio
It was very cold last night. I'm glad we didn't have to try to sleep in the tent. There was frost on everything in the morning. We got an early start and made it to Niagra Falls around noon. The falls were magnificent, so beautiful and powerful. It was such a clear day. We took lots of pictures. I wish we could have stayed until evening because they put the colored lights on then and they illuminate the falls in a rainbow of color. I also wish we would have had our birth certificates because with a license and birth certificate, you can still cross the Canadian border into Ontario. From there you can see the face of the falls, the best vantage point. Everyone was real hungry when we left, so we went to the Friendly Chinese Buffet and filled our tanks. After that, I was too tired to drive, so we stopped at a rest stop and I took a snooze in the back of the van. After about an hour we continued driving and read the Bible and sang hymns. We drove late into the night again and ended up at a truck stop and tried again to sleep in a sitting position in the car. The two front seats don't recline at all so it was not a very restful sleep.
