Note taped to a glass door of an abandoned building in Saginaw, Michigan that reads "A little work will make a lifetime of memories". I'm not really sure what they mean by that.
Note the old Hudsons sign still on the wall in Chapel Street, Netherton. I drive along this street every time I travel to events at the Leyland Museum.

Currency design f**king rocks. Here's a digital collection of old World currency that I have managed to collect over the years.
It's been a while. This is the top of my computer desk. The springtime sun has perked up the bonsai and the cacti; they'll be going outside soon. Also featured is my impractically large and ever-growing shot glass collection.

Niagra Falls.
The Niagra Gorge extends 7 miles (11km) downstream from the falls. The canadian horseshoe falls plunge 52m (170 feet) into the Maid of the Mist Pool. The american falls descend 34m (110 feet) to the rock pile at the base of the falls.The Niagra river is very young being only 12000 years old. The falls are the second largest in the world after Victoria Falls in southern Africa. The falls have moved back 7 miles over 12,000 years, making it one of the fastest moving waterfall in the world.
Each minute, 168,000 cubic metres (6 million cubic feet) of water pass over the crestline.
The majority of the river flow is removed upstream and shared between both canada and america for hydro electric generation for a total generating capacity of 4.4 million kilowatts (5 million horsepower).
Historically the first humans arrived in the niagra region almost 12,000 years ago, just in time to witness the birth of the falls (far downstream from where it currently flows, or falls, today). In may 1535 Jacques Cartier left France to explore the new world and open a chain of high priced jewelery stores with fiesty security guards at the door. Although he never saw the falls, the indians he met along the st lawrence river told him about the mighty cataract, stories too that reached Samuel de Champlain visiting canada in 1608. A jesuit father Gabriel Lalemant first recorded the Iroquios indian name for the river - Onguiaahra, meaning the Strait. Niagra is a simplification of the original.
One fifth of all the fresh water in the world lies in the four upper great lakes, michigan, huron, superior and erie. All the outflow empties in the niagra river and eventually cascades over the falls.
March 29th 1848 due to an ice jam the upper river stopped flowing for several hours. The flow was stopped to a point where peope actually walked out and recovered artifacts from the riverbed.
The falls were very different less than 100 years ago. Today 3/4 of the river flow is diverted both for hydro generation and to slow the erosion of the falls. Eventually the falls will recede far enough to drain most of Lake Erie, the bottom of which is higher than the bottom of the falls. 90% of the river goes over the Horseshoe falls and at night the flow is cut by half for further hydro generation. This drastically reduced the two to ten feet of annual erosion that was occuring, with the falls receding southward at that rate.
The recent construction of tall buildings (mostly hotels) on the canadian side has caused the airflow over the falls to change direction. The result is that the viewing areas on the canadian side are now often obscured by a layer of mist from breezes rolling over the buildings and flowing down into the gorge below the falls feeding into a whirlpool of moisture and air.
