Where we ate lunch yesterday, we were just astounded at these huge hydrangea plants.  

Here's Ruthie standing beside one of them.

Hi Pat, the pictures turned out very good.   That was a fun time at Niagara Falls and Niagara on the Lake.   And the weather was unbelievable.    I enjoyed every moment.

Love Ruthie

That cedar tree with all of us in it is years old.  Amazing the way it has been cut.  That is a good picture of Brock's Monument Pat.

Love Ruthie

Everytime I see a picture of Janet, I think that I know someone who looks just like her.  Today I figured it out....Janet, you look like my friend, Marge, who went with us to Precious Moments and who also is my birthday twin!!!! 

Pat, these are fantabulous photos!  And I do see less of you than I saw of you in Calgary...:)

Pat, it looks like you all just had "too" much fun!  Seriously, great photos of very nice folks.
Title: Re: Meeting the Damons in Niagara Falls
Post by: Pat on September 25, 2004, 11:18:06 AM

We DID have a lot of fun!  It was as if we had known each other a very long time. 

I have more photos that i'll post when I have a few minutes.  Just getting ready to head to Toronto now.

Glad you see "less of me" than when we were in Calgary last year, Etta Sue!  It's still 24 lb. with the "cheating in Niagara" so I'm happy about that.  I thought I'd gain quite a lot with the two pieces of cheese cake and the ice cream!  LOL

Rocks Through the Mist at the Falls


Taken from the Maid of the Mist
of the American Falls' rocky base.

Base of the American Falls

Taken from the Maid of the Mist boat
in the raging Niagara River.

The yellow-caped tourists are barely visible
at the right scrambling around the rocks.

Great photos, and wow! Those t-shirts!!!!!!!! :) :D
Title: Re: Meeting the Damons in Niagara Falls
Post by: Margit Rhone-Saunders on September 25, 2004, 03:53:00 PM
.......and speaking of T-shirts, may I ask if Darryl's is after a motive of the G. Harvey the artist?
His paintings are much in that order, I just showed Chris some of them, all Western art.

Thank you for sharing your good times with all of us, you Four, you do look like you are having a great time.  It is great to meet up in person with folks from here and realize that we truly are family.

Love to all, God bless.

Great Pictures Pat. Thank you for putting them here.

Howdy, Y'all!  I'm home, and just checking to see what Pat posted!  She's speedy!

Chris and Margit, Darrel's tee shirts are from paintings by Jack Sorenson, from whom I have taken lessons for years---but only for one week per year!  He is a great artist, and I, too, love those shirts.

Pat, the two shots from the Maid of the Mist are wonderful!!  I hope mine look that good!  We had such a great time with you and Ruthie, but the time went by just TOO fast!  We must get together again, that's all there is to it!

I will post some of my photos after I get them on a disc.  We are going to Liberal tomorrow, so I can get that done then.

It was a wonderful trip, and God blessed us with absolutely perfect weather the entire time.  He is so good to us!  The highlight of the trip, for me, was meeting Pat!  She kept telling everyone we had been friends for eight years but never met in person before.  A lot of them thought we were sisters!  ;D

Thanks, Etta Sue.  And I'm glad I look like a friend of yours, not an enemy!  ;)  Just kidding, of course, as I know you don't have any enemies! ;D

Thanks Soni.

I wish I could have gotten some photos at the base of the Horseshoe Falls (Canadian) as they are so much larger and more powerful but the spray was just like a gale or hurricane and I could hardly open my eyes let alone get out the camera.  Janet had an underwater camera so I hope that she got some with it.


Al, here's a site all about General Brock...

Pat, mine didn't turn out very good.  Even the camera couldn't see through all that moving water!  I will post a couple of them when I find out where they went!  They are on this machine somewhere!
Title: Re: Meeting the Damons in Niagara Falls
Post by: Janet on September 30, 2004, 07:23:49 PM
Actually, the ones from the uw camera aren't bad, I was looking at the prints today.  So I will post some of those later.  After all, even a camera can't see that well through a wall of streaming water!

Gosh Janet, you are a tiny tot.  Well next to Darrell.

I love those tree pics.  Ruthie looks so good.  Wasn't there a "gum" tree handy?..
lol.

Amazing pictures all of you.
