vlogmas :: by the lakeside :: days 15 & 16 (a trip to Niagara Falls)

[@Liz.Green789]

Thank you for taking us with you. That view of the falls was spectacular.

[@cindik7268]

Sandy, thank you so much for taking us with you on your trip. The boys must have loved the arcade…all three of them! I have been to the US side recently in the summer. I need to get my passport to go to the Canadian side. The fireworks display is always so beautiful! When we went there on our honeymoon, 46 years ago, of course you didn’t need a passport. But I need to go back! I see a new quilt in your future. That fudge looked delicious. Well, thanks again! See you tomorrow.

[@hankiespice]

That hot cinnamon tea is by far one of my favorites.

[@brendaiwanski8217]

I sort of figured you were going to the falls the other day when you mentioned an overnight two hours away. Reminds me of when we made many hockey trips with our kids up your way! Your video made me homesick for Buffalo-our home for 43 years! Looks like you had great weather for your trip which is always a plus in winter there! 😀 Oh, and what I’d give to have Tim Hortons in GA where we now live! Merry Christmas! Oh my gosh-sponge candy from Courtney! Yummmm! That alone is worth the trip!

[@joanie9258]

Loved seeing Niagara Falls! It’s on my bucket list. Loved the hotel overlooking the falls too!

[@deliad8826]

It was so great to see the Falls and familiar sights in Buffalo. We are heading there to be with family the week after Christmas and can’t wait. What a beautiful view from your hotel. Hope it was a restful getaway

[@crionagbuidhe891]

I'm a bit late , still catching up, but thanks for showing your trip to Niagara Falls. It brings back a lot of good memories. We stayed at the Sheraton Fallsview a few years ago and had a wonderful time there, after visiting family in Toronto and Oakville and touring round a small part of Ontario. Sarah in Scotland

[@Turtle4Cats]

What a beautiful view! I loved hearing the sound of the falls as well. I hope you all had a great trip!

[@Jillaneaj]

I forget how awesome the falls are and seeing them at night with the fireworks was amazing. Thank you so much tor taking us along.

[@mistyblue5312]

Walking down with a different type of coffee cup. Love this edition of vlogmas. Something different. The lights, the trees, the shopping. Looks like we are gonna have a green Christmas Sandy! Thanks for sharing. ❤🎄🎄🎄🎉🎅🏻🎅🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@pegc3706]

Thanks for sharing. The best view is from the Canadian side. Beautiful!

[@abbywelker-HaciendaHomemade]

Ohhhhh!!!! Your trip looks dreamy!!!! We were just there a few months ago - across the river on the American side. 🥰 your hotel views were STUNNING!!!

[@lesliegb5543]

Thanks Sandy for sharing your trip to Niagara Falls- it was so beautiful!!💕

[@carolmorrison5173]

Loved seeing this I grew up 90 miles east of buffalo. Now in in Chicago I’ll

[@ursulauphof420]

I so loved this trip with you. Thank you Sandy..take care xxx❤

[@kristinahill3708]

What fun to "join you" on your trip! Thank you 😊

[@christinegiroux8471]

The Canadian side is the best side of the falls! We went there 22 yrs ago, and drove from Pittsburgh. Your hotel room view- spectacular! I remember the little park there, and the nearby town Niagara on the lake- a beautiful little town. I giggled when you were in Barnes and Noble- knew you had to check out the cookbook section!

[@karenclarke301]

My old stomping grounds! I grew up on Grand Island, and learned to swim in the Niagara River!! Fun video.

[@kogrady31]

I hope you had a wonderful trip! I live in Idaho and have traveled a lot but Niagara Falls is still on my “must see” list, looks amazing! I also want to go to Toronto. I have heard many great things about it. I hope this little break refreshed you and was just what you hoped it would be. Thanks for taking us along Sandy! P.S. can’t wait to see more of your new cast-on😍

[@freckledcrafts86]

I've been dreaming up our family trip for next summer and you reminded me how great Niagra is. My son is obsessed with waterfalls and I've never been to the Canadian side so it just soared up our list

[@carolrodenbeck2381]

You had the perfect view from your hotel!! Thanks for taking us along. Niagra Falls is still on my Bucket List!

[@Kay-xb9cp]

The view from your hotel room was amazing!

[@jenkershner]

Niagara Falls is so different from how I always imagined it! Welcome home, Sandy. I bet it felt good to get back.

[@jeannefox4706]

Thank you for taking us along on your family trip. I’ve never been to Niagara Falls. Time to get planning.

[@constancegarcia8053]

Thank you for the beautiful trip.❤❤❤

[@barbsmiley]

That was such fun Sandy. I just discovered you after seeing your Rhineback vlog this fall. I fell in love with your 2nd avenue wrap and made one, love it so got yarn for a 2nd one. I love your leather bags, I am getting one for Cbristmas. And I am so enjoying your Vlogmas's. You put me in the Christmas spirit. Merry Christmas from southern Alberta.

[@bythelakeside]

Thank you so much!!

[@barbaramcrae8425]

What a special video this was!! Thank you so much for sharing it with us. It has changed so much since I was there in 1993!😊

[@annadunfjall6545]

Hi I love your wrap and wonder were I can find the pattern? Love to listen and see your vlogmas. Greetings from Sweden.

[@bythelakeside]

Hello! It’s the 2nd avenue wrap by Amy miller (it’s on Ravelry)

[@bittensejr7055]

Thank you, thank you so much for showing the falls - I always wanted to see them, but living in Denmark makes it kind of difficult!

[@bythelakeside]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Mac00012]

Was that Clifton Hill? Boy has everything changed!

[@marshasemple7108]

Thanks for sharing the Canadian view of Niagara Falls since I’ve only seen the US side! What hotel did you stay at? I’d love to have that view of the Falls from my room.

[@bythelakeside]

We definitely have the better view since the falls are on the US side. It was the Sheridan on the falls hotel.

[@marylealepke1173]

The lights on the trees are beautiful. The downtown looks like Las Vegas!

[@Linda-ib6vn]

Hi Sandy! Wow beautiful, the waterfalls❤️ Also, I love your 2nd Avenue wrap. Is it wide enough to wear around your shoulders, like a big wrap?

[@bythelakeside]

Yes, I was wearing it around my shoulders while I knit in that chair because I wanted the window open. It’s one of the best knits I ever ever made.

[@Linda-ib6vn]

@@bythelakeside ah thank you! I think I will cast it on soon!

[@nikoleleth374]

Thank you for sharing Just beautiful

[@prusinjl]

That was fantastic! Which hotel did you stay in? Your view was perfect! Thanks!

[@bythelakeside]

The Sheraton on the falls

[@marianeill9360]

An awesome vlog!!!

[@blindrootinhogs]

What is that pasta recipe , it looks delish !!

[@bythelakeside]

It’s called TikTok pasta and it’s really good! You can find it online.

[@annemacdonald2516]

Curious about TikTok pasta!

[@bythelakeside]

It’s delicious! And so easy , we have it often

[@jackieleipert1950]

Delightful!

[@catherinecunningham7126]

Looked like a fun time! Was that Red Lobster? ❤️ I was at Walmart yesterday and found myself in the middle of massive amounts of cotton pajamas and thought “hey I really need more pajamas, Sandy would agree”, so I bought three pair! (Not bad quality for Walmart either). I’ve been wearing a pair all day. Just stayed in and decluttered so why not! 😂 How was the TicToc pasta dish? ❤️💚🎄

[@bythelakeside]

😂 the TikTok pasta was delicious, I make it often!

[@eprohoda]

By! fantastic ,bye-;)
