Adopt a Cat!

Meow!

Have you always wanted a feline companion?   There are so many benefits to adopting a cat.  Before you decide - can you deal with the following?

• scooping/cleaning litter box
• vet bills (annual vaccinations and checkups)
• scratching or meowing in the middle of the night

Ginger

 Ginger was fostered by a loving family in South Jersey.  An independent cat who did not get along with other cats.  She was adopted from  Furrever Friends in 2009 and lives happily with her owners in North Jersey.  She enjoys tummy rubs, chasing the laser, and sleeping in the window.

Under the Rainbow Bridge

If you want to visit the Canadian side of Niagara Falls, get your passport ready!   Once you cross the border, there is a lot to see on the other side. 

                         

Drive or walk on the Rainbow bridge between Niagara Falls in New York (USA) and Niagara Falls in Ontario Canada. 

After you take a selfie in front of the waterfall, take a stroll underneath the Rainbow Bridge.  You will walk in the footsteps of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth. They visited the Rainbow Bridge on June 7, 1939.

There is a magnificent view underneath the bridge!

 You can walk along the edge of the Hudson River and take in the views.  This is a great place for photography, painting, or a picnic at Ross Park.

Vegas....The Fremont Street Experience

They say "what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas"! There are some fun places to visit and talk about, on and off the Strip. 

I recommend that you spend a day or night downtown, at the Fremont Street Experience, where you can play old fashion coin slots, go to restaurants, get free drinks and people watch!

At night there is a fun light show.  You can chill out at an oxygen bar, or be adventurous and "zip-line" high above the street!  My favorite thing favorite thing was the deep-fried twinkles at Mermaids Casino
