Every year millions of tourists leave the Niagara area when summer is over. They miss out on a most spectacular site. The ice trees of Goat Island are a marvel to see. If you are lucky and catch a sunny day the trees come to life and sparkle like diamonds against a rich blue sky. This would be a great place for some outdoor images for a winter wedding. If you get a chance check out the island and these amazing trees.

We didn't have a wedding this weekend so Wendy and I went apple picking. If you haven't tried it you should. we went to Blackman Farms in Cambria. A great place to take the kids. Besides the 10 varieties of apples they also have pears. They have pumpkins, a petting zoo, turkeys, goats, cows, hay bail maze, an many many apple products like cider and apple butter. We had a great time picking 18 lbs. of apples but you can buy them already picked too. Their apple cider is delicious.
