Cliff dwellers

We took our annual hike along the cliffs that over look Presque Isle Bay. This trail begins at the foot (north end) of Peach Street and winds its way west to Liberty St.--about a mile, I'd guess. The views on a beautiful summer day such as this were nothing short of stunning. 

 

Here's the Sheraton Hotel and the Convention Center, along with a small number of boats. 

 

Lots of bushes and trees along the path provide natural habitat for our many summer birds. 

  

Here is the restored building that serves as the Erie Water Works, 

really a lovely masterpiece of the architecture of its time.

 

Here is a large marina right in the bay. 

 

And, finally, Niagara Pier. A heavenly place to live, at least in the summer. 

I don't know about those howling, cold winter winds!
