Agreed.

If one has never been, it's worth a digression on your next trip to the Niagara Falls area.

I grew up near Cleveland, and had been to Niagara Falls a bunch of times. But until I took some California family for their first trip there, I had never returned to The States on the Canadian side of the Niagara river.

The drive down the Canadian side was so pleasant, peaceful and scenic. We had a very casual beer/patio dinner on the riverside at a neat roadside stop.

I've been nearly every place in the US, and the Canadian side of the Niagara River reminded me most of the miles just north of where the Ashley River flows in to Charleston harbor.
