I was told by my accountant wife that if I didnt't return by 8pm Monday night my credit cards would be reported stolen Yeah Right As I sit here at home writing this entry I would like to thank all of my family and friends who came along on the trip. I appreciated all of the great comments and emails along the way. Now to answer the bur http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/West-Virginia/blog-207417.html Today was spen above and below the falls. Took a self walking tour under the falls and had an expensive lunch 775ft above the falls with a 360deg rotatating view. I'm not happy with the outcome of the images and the weather butwhatchagonna do eh http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/Canada/Ontario/Niagara-Falls/blog-206774.html Today I started on my return trip home determined to capture the beauty that Pennsylvania had to offer. I drove for 12 hours through the farmlands hillsides and mountains seraching for that special shot. I even ran across a parked car with the keys in it and running. I don't know how I'm going to make it without FULL SERVICE gas stations http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Pennsylvania/Philadelphia/South-Philly/blog-206773.html It rained all the way back to PA not much to report http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/Canada/Ontario/Niagara-Falls/blog-206772.html Arrived in Niagra Falls today Heavy overcast and a little rain today. Looks like rain tomorrow also so the pictures will not have the colors that you guy's are used to seeing on the trip. I will try my best to bring as much color as I can. I will be here for two days so I will do what I can. Looks like taking any night pictures is also out because of the heavy mist that is blocking the light fr http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/Canada/Ontario/Niagara-Falls/blog-205905.html Had to get up early this morning after arriving around eight pm last night. I left at 530 am to make my way to two lights park to catch the sunrise and to get a lighthouse before returning back to the room and packing up in time to make it to Syracuse NY before it gets dark. Here are the photos that started in Maine. http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Maine/Portland/blog-205745.html Today started out in the City of Boston. I took one of those Trolley tours and captured some of the local buildings and scenery http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Massachusetts/Boston/blog-205728.html Im in Boston today. It's a wonderful city from what I have seen today. The seafood of course is great I have more pictures but due to time I will have to post them later. I'm falling behind on this blog. http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Massachusetts/Boston/blog-205008.html Spent the day in New York City Nice place to visit but you have to be crazy to want to live here Noisy Busy did I mention Noisy. We were pushed for time so most of the pictures are taken from one of those double decker buses. http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/New-York/New-York/blog-204996.html I Spent most of the day driving across Virginia Maryland Delaware New Jersey just so I could get my hands on one of those famous Philadelphia cheesesteak sandwiches. Well........... After eating a world famos GENOS cheesesteak sandwich I was left with the feeling that they wern't all that after all until Todd suggested trying another one fron the neighboring compettion across the street Pat http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Virginia/Jefferson-National-Forest/blog-204995.html OK what started out to be a easy drive to Fredricksville Virgina ended up being a ten hour trip but who cares Driving through the national forests takes up a lot of time because the speed linits are 20 to 45mph any faster and you'll end up on the evening newsPart IIAfter getting some dinner at a local establishment I headed out for what I thought would be some great night images in W http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Virginia/Shanendoah-National-Park/blog-204115.html Another early start to day two of my trip. I started out at 6am so that I could reach the mountains early it was another beautiful day temperatures in the 70's. I got some great shot's in and around the area.

My first leg was almost 700 Miles which landed me in Blue Ridge GA. First the good news The scenery was Beautiful. Now the bad news. Since I decided to take all back roads there wasn't any where to pull over and get the spectacular shots of the landscape but not to worry we still have a good 12 to 14 days left on this trip. I will be posting a few images that I though http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Alabama/Montgomery/blog-203506.html This is a test of the blog I took this picture when visiting Las Vegas earlier this year. http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Nevada/Las-Vegas/blog-203055.html
