    Such a pretty waterfall. It’s nice that the college lets people onto the campus to view it. There is a small charge to see it, but it’s really small and well worth it for people who cannot walk far distances to view waterfalls. I appreciate the opportunity to view a waterfall in person, since there are so many that are too difficult for me to see.

    Hey nice post! I hope it’s ok that I shared it on my Twitter,
    if not, no issues just tell me and I’ll remove it.
    Either way keep up the great work.
