Over the falls in a Bush Legacy Bus
BUFFALO, NY-Our day in upstate New York started with an unsuccessful attempt at getting a photo in front of Niagara Falls. To our disappointment, 12,000 years ago when glaciers receded north and the path of the Great Lakes created the falls, photo-ops for 45- foot long buses were not taken into consideration. At least not from the NY side of the falls. Mother nature should’ve known that 11,992 years later a really bad President would take over the area south of the falls, making a campaign bus photo-op necessary.
Rapids along the river, the falls are underneath. Without our perfect photo, we headed to our stop at Bidwell Park in Buffalo. It was pouring freezing cold rain and about to snow any moment. We still managed to have a decent crowd on the bus. Fortunately, we got out of New York in time to miss an October snowstorm.
