I live in southwestern Ontario, across the Detroit River in Canada. I am a Canadian citizen, married to an American, and our son has dual citizenship...the best of both worlds.
My favorite location in Ontario is the mighty water falls on the Niagra River, one of the great romantic vacation spots on the planet!
I can not begin to explain the roar or power as the waters of the world's largest inland fresh water system, the Great Lakes, falls over the Niagra escartment between Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. You HAVE to experience it to understand!!!
Over in Michigan I love Greenfield Historical Village, next door to the Ford Museum of cars in Dearborne, not far from Detroit. Every one should go there at least once.

Appalachia.........there is so much history here, scenery, if you travel parallel to this ridge...going North through the Smokies and beyond...this ridge begins in either Georgia or Alabama.
It will cross the Natchez Trace...and THAT is a 1,000+ mile meandering, two lane road which is preserved as a National Landmark...no hotels, restaurants, nothing that says 'new civilization here'....starts in Natchez, Miss, and goes to North Carolina...
Good Morning!

I lived in ORegon for years, and the neatest place I saw there is Crater Lake over by Medford. It is one of the most beautiful sites I ever saw anywhere. It is a natural lake, created by a volcano long ago. There are shapes in the water from huge rocks that form so many shapes , as in a castle. Just huge and gorgous. The water has the most awesome color of blue, especially so around the edges. I cant even find the words to describe it. I kept hearing about it while I lived there, and I was single. I had many chances to go with others. But wouldnt go. I said If I ever remarry, my husband will take me there, and I prayed for God to send me the one HE chose for me. HE did, years later, and yes, he took me to Crater Lake. That was one of our favorite places to go. Incredible beauty. in Arizona, its the red mountains up by Flagstaff. Incredible. In Chicago, it is the great lakes.
In northern Calif, it is the redwoods in northern calif.
Its been a priviledge to live in so many places and see the trmendous awesome beauty God has created for us all to enjoy. I have only been in Canada once and found it gorgous. Same with Alaska. untamed beauty. yes yes yes.
Thans for letting us know of the beauty around you.
Great question. Praise God for all of it. YUM...

I have always lived in Niagara Falls. Thank you for giving it a thumbs up. I agree with you about the majesty of it even though I have lived here forever and see it all the time. It is all that you say it is.
Have a great day

It isn't the place that you visit, it's what you experience while you are there.
