UPDATE BELOW and here-photo heavy
Hello Cuties! I'm back stateside and tonight I'm in Cincinnati Ohio. I have, and am having, a wonderful time. Tomorrow night will be in Tennessee. We. Are going to the Kentucky Derby Museum in the morning but are on our way back home.
We saw beautiful places God made for us to care for and enjoy. We would have loved to visit the Amish Farms. We saw some from the interstate and even someone in the horse and buggy.
Canada Cuties we had a wonderful man from St Catherine's that guided us to vineyards, to Toronto to Casa Loma, and of course the BEAUTIFUL, majestic Niagara Falls.
We rode this ship up close to the Falls and most got wet from the spray of the mist even with the thin raincoats they gave us. It was an experience I will treasure.
Our Canadian guide took us places off the 'beaten path 'and did more than he was required to do. A very nice man we all appreciated.
I do hope all of you are well and pray for the ones that aren't. I'll catch up when I get home Monday. Have a great night or day wherever you are! Toogie

Just had to share these as everyone knows I am scared of heights and my niece said I was a little daredevil on this trip-lol-she sent a photo to my daughter in a text that read 'There goes your mamma'-lol
I really did have an awesome adventure! I am sure you and Ron were laughing it up!
One day, while I was waiting for the bus to re-load and for me to count 45 heads, for the upteenth time (lol) I spoke with the youngest one's husband Danny. As we talked, I learned where they were from and casually mentioned my cousin was a retired detective, from that city. Can you believe, his wife worked with my cousin as she was a police officer there! Small world! This lady is in fine shape and once when we saw her run, to check on her sister and BIL, she actually did RUN and she is 75 years young!
That same cousin of mine called me when we got home and I told him I met her. I said I could not believe how well she got around. He said oh yes, she has always been fit. I guess it was due to their training.
I was heartbroken when I could no longer take photos and that happened our first day in Canada! My IPhone stopped taking photos and I forgot my extra battery and charger for my 'real' camera.
Several passengers have been sending me photos of places we went and things we saw. Thank heavens!
