    A Trip to Seneca Falls (Updated)

    December 4, 2020 /

    My plans for the evening got derailed, so I’m switching gears for today’s blog post.  I’m re-sharing my adventure finding the Ludovico Sculpture Trail a couple years ago and then I’ve added the painting that was inspired by the trip at the end.  Enjoy! This weekend I went for a…

    Waterfall Wednesday: Genesee Lower Falls

    July 10, 2019 /

    We’ve reached the 49th Waterfall Wednesday blog post.  Do you know what that means?  Just one more waterfall next week and we’ve made it through the whole 50 New York Waterfalls project!  I’m currently brainstorming ideas for upcoming blog posts.  Anything topics you’d like to see more of?   Today’s waterfall…

    Waterfall Wednesday: Unnamed Falls

    July 3, 2019 /

    This week we go to an unnamed waterfall in Buttermilk Falls State Park that almost wasn’t part of my 50 New York Waterfalls project.  I was conflicted about including an unnamed waterfall in the project when all the other waterfalls were main features with their own names.  Ultimately decided this…

    If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you may remember me previously mentioning Sweedler Preserve and my little mishap with reading the map (reread here).  I’ve been reading up on the waterfall and the trails in this preserve and there are many young, experienced hikers that have commented on…

    “In one place in the island of Hawaii, we saw a laced and ruffled cataract of limpid water leaping from a sheer precipice fifteen hundred feet high; but that sort of scenery finds its stanchest ally in the arithmetic rather than in spectacular effect. If one desires to be so…

    Waterfall Wednesday: Upper Triphammer Falls

    June 12, 2019 /

    I haven’t quite pinned down why this waterfall is one of my favorites.  Maybe it’s because it falls at angular steps.  Maybe it’s because it’s in such an urban setting.  Maybe it’s because it satisfies some need to find out where things start.  Maybe it’s the beautiful lake and waterlilies…
