@acadman4322 ! I'm only telling it like it is.
I really miss cross-country skiing, something I like to do at night, out along the river in the moonlight, following animal tracks in the snow. The worst thing about our new weather is about farmers. Crops and orchards come alive when there's a warm spell in December to February, but the next time it freezes they are killed. And if you ever come to Niagara Falls, try this. After midnight they lower the water level for more American production. It's less than ten inches deep. You can walk in the water and stand at the edge looking down, something my friends and I have been doing since after high school. When Americans shut off the water during a generating station build, Canadians used hydraulic jacks to chip the rock surface down lower, because the water never reached the Canadian river banks. It's not a smooth eroded surface, being easy to get a grip on with your feet.
If you are standing at Table Rock, where the Falls falls, going over the railing you will see what looks almost like steps in the rocks with no soil and grass left, because that's the easiest way to get down into the river. I am Clan Watt. Don't get me going about the new Nikola Tesla statue, on the Canadian side.
