Mount Hope Cemetery in Rochester, New York, is a truly interesting place. More than a flat piece of ground, it has hills and valleys, nooks and crannies, woodlands and open areas, all contributing to a calm feeling of peace.
The older portions have a very Victorian feel about them. It has been open since 1837 or so and currently has about 350 000 residents.

At Letchworth State Park, the Genesee River has carved its way down through layers of limestone to create this gorge.
Seventy miles to the West, the Niagara River has cut through the same formation to create Niagara Falls.

Lake Nosbonsing ends in Bonfield and flows into the Kaibuskong River to the right.
Some years ago this bay was used to boom white pine logs from Lake Nipissing. The logs were then floated from here to Montreal via the Mattawa and Ottawa rivers.
These days it’s a beautiful place to be.
