Niagara Falls and a Rainbow

We did Niagara Falls yesterday...Just fascinating seeing millions of gallons of water flowing
from lake Erie. Also went to the Canadian side and had lunch at a Costco there. French fries with your choice of gravy or Cheese curds....Okaaaay......;)

Made it to New York

Made it to New York state...Niagara falls next ...then on to see Leah's Aunt up by Syracuse ...Rhinebeck,NY after that to see more airplanes of course...wink emoticon

Stop over in Erie,Pennsylvania

A little stop over in Erie,Pennsylvania on our way to New York to visit Leah's Aunt.
I did not know the beaches on Lake Erie were so nice,Sand like the Ocean,crystal clear water and actually warm.

Planes,Planes,planes and a boat...Oshkosh Leahs day!

Its Friday....Leah says let me in to the air show!..Its Leah's turn to see the sights...Started off with the Warbirds,then on to the Ultralights, A trip to the seaplane base was next...And tonight we shall see Gary Sinise in concert....Full day for sure!

Oshkosh...by Gosh...Day before open July 19th 2015

Came into Oshkosh for the airshow a day early so I decided to camp and check out the activities. Fun to watch the place being setup.The flightline if you walk the whole thing is 10 miles long!...Obviously will take a few days to cover it. We are camped in a 24hr generator area,that allows any time of day generator use for AC etc. So far temperatures are just low 80's...not to bad. Found out I can get a ride on the Bell 47 helicopter...looking forward to that as well as the Ford Tri-Motor ride.

Madison Wisconsin Farmers Market July 18th 2015

We did the farmers market in Madison this morning...started off the day with a thunderstorm
but it quickly moved on to be replaced by the sun. It is a fantastic Farmers market that is situated
all around the capitol building. The thing we liked most is the fact that only real farmers are allowed
,no merchandise/crafts...just real food....lots of free samples too!  

The Wisconsin Dells July 15th

Well we had not heard of the Wisconsin Dells until we came through Wisconsin this time.One of the oldest sites to appear on maps of the western Great Lakes region is the “Dalles” of the Wisconsin River. It was identified as a convenient reference point by French explorers in the 1700’s.The name stuck after the French explorers left Wisconsin, with the spelling and pronunciation Anglicized as the “dells”

The area now is quite a tourist spot,but it was fun to visit. We had a great hour and a half tour of the area via an WWII vintage Army amphibious duck.(I even got to drive)...Great Fun and at only $23 it was a bargain for sure!
