We Are In Niagara Falls,NY

We made it out of Altoona, PA where we spent the night last night. Before I tell you about today, please allow me to tell you about the great day we had in Patton, PA yesterday. First of all, Patton is where Harv grew up and he wanted to see it again. That we did! We even had lunch with his boyhood chum Eddie who still lived there.
Below you will see some pictures of Patton, Grandma's old bar and restaurant and some surrounding buildings. The Harvey family will recognize most of the pictures, except the one of the racks of videos. That was taken inside the old bar. Yup, you guessed it, the bar is now a video store. Where are the priorities of these people? Harv wanted to have a beer in Patton so we bellied up to the bar at the VFW. I never turn down the opportunity for a cold beer.

















Back now to where I started. We are holed up for the night in Niagara Falls, NY. Tomorrow we will go see the falls in hopes that they will have them turned on for the season.

After that we are heading for Canada, Michigan, a four hour car ferry ride across Lake Michigan, Wisconsin and on home to Minnesota.

I had better run along now. I am rigging up a barrel for the falls!
