Reporter taken for a ride
From the Niagara Falls Review (not really an article… just a video):
Niagara Falls Review reporter Tony Ricciuto was taken for a ride in a 500 HP Dodge Charger on Saturday in the upper parking lot of the Skylon Tower. The car was in town for an exhibition to mark the one year anniversary of Carey Hart opening a tattoo shop in Niagara Falls. Spectators were taken for a ride for free.

Summer 2010 is “over”… was it good?
I know that summer doesn’t officially end in this part of the world until September 21, but in this tourist area it might as well be over. The beginning of September and the passing of Labour Day makrs the beginning of school. That means that family vacations are no more. The weekends might still be busy here, but things are significantly slower during the week.
So, how as Summer 2010? It’s hard to get a good read on this. Admittedly, I haven’t contacted anyone who their input (I don’t think they’d give me an honest answer anyway), but my impression was that it was a better year that they’ve had the last couple. Here are a few of my own observations (including some comments I’ve made before):
- There often seemed to be a lot of people around
- There were more US license plates seen
- The weather was fantastic
- Apparently the motorcycle get-together, and the Elvis festival were not big hits
- The new Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville opened and always seems to have a decent number of people in it
- I didn’t go, but it sounds like the party for the opening of the Hart & Huntington tattoo shop was the place to be
Hopefully the last couple of years were the bottom, and with improved business will come even more growth. I assume that the new convention centre will only help…
