Vernice and I were very privileged to have traveled to Canada a few weeks ago for Dianne and Brandon’s gorgeous wedding. We were able to go sightseeing before the couple’s nuptials and took several photographs along the way as tourists. We have always wanted to go to Niagara Falls to witness one of God’s amazing creations. Many thanks to the newlyweds for allowing us to experience such a beautiful place and giving us a chance to mark this off our ‘to do’ list. Cheers! [M]My beautiful wife enjoying the falls!
