Also, while I was visiting her, we went up to Boldt Castle, which located on an island that is one of the Thousand Islands on the St Lawrence River. Lovely castle with a sweet story behind it. Boldt bought Heart Island and decided to build a castle on it for his wife. Before he could finish the castle, his wife passed away in January 1904. He left the island and never returned to finish it. For 73 years, the castle was left unfinished. Weather and vandals started to ruin the castle until the Thousand Islands Bridge Authority acquired it in 1977. Several millions of dollars have gone into restoring the castle on Heart Island.

I loved New York. The weather was perfect. I hated having to come back home to Georgia. The humidity needs to go now.
Here are a few pictures from Niagara Falls:
