I will be in Buffalo, NY for the next few days! Yeah!  :bandance;  We're leaving tomorrow morning at 4am. Yikes!  :o We're going up there to see the Bengals/Bills game and spend some time with my Mom and her boyfriend, but while we're there, we're also going to Niagara Falls! Hopefully, I will have pictures to share when I return on Tuesday. Bye!

We're back! We had a great time, even tho the Bengals lost (we knew they would--great way to support the home team, huh?). The tail gating was absolutely frigid, as the sun disappeared and the wind kicked up, but we toughed it out anyway. I got to see my mother and soon-to-be step-father, which was great. They took us to Niagara Falls, which was a beautiful place. The Maid of the Mist boat tours weren't running so we didn't get too close, but our video camera has 20x zoom, so it was like we were in the falls anyway! I'll post pictures as soon as I get a chance.

I will post them as soon as I get a chance to talk to my husband. He's got a fancy, complicated camera and I need to find out how to download the pics! He left for a business trip as soon as we got back, and I haven't gotten to talk to him yet.

More pictures!

1. Niagara Falls
2. Niagara Falls
3. The Flower Clock at the Buffalo Conservatory
4. Tailgating at the Bills/Bengals game - my husband, Greg, me, my "future step father," John and my mom, Susan 

Oh, yeah, and there were Bengals fans everywhere! We were shocked at how many showed up all the way in Buffalo, NY for the game. Even from halfway up in the stadium, you could see orange all over the place! We weren't alone!
