I just spent the last hour walking around Niagara Falls. It's pretty peaceful and relaxing when there's no one up there. I do this sometimes as it's pretty therapeutic. I suppose there's really no point to this thread as I just can't sleep I guess.
I envy you. When I go for a walk, I get to walk around the busiest road in fucking Canada.

I get to walk down a road where I can see a car coming for six days... Well, if there ever is a car. All I see is tractors.
That actually sounds awesome.

I live in Buffalo which is noisy enough. I have to drive to the falls, which takes abut 20 minutes.

Niagara Falls Incident
Delahanty died when he was swept over Niagara Falls in 1903. He was apparently kicked off a train by the train's conductor for being drunk and disorderly. The conductor said Delahanty was brandishing a straight razor and threatening passengers. After being kicked off the train, Delahanty started his way across the International Bridge (near Niagara Falls) and fell or jumped off the bridge (some accounts say Ed was yelling about death that night). Whether "Big Ed" died from his plunge over the Falls, or drowned on the way to the Falls is uncertain.
A thorough study of the tragedy appeared with the publication of JULY 2, 1903: THE MYSTERIOUS DEATH OF BIG ED DELAHANTY, by Mike Sowell (New York, Toronto, MacMillan Publishing Co., 1992). Sowell presents the evidence of a drunken accident, suicide, and even possibly a robbery murder (there were reports of a mysterious man following Delahanty). Most students of the tragedy opt for a drunken accident. Sowell's book is useful though in giving a report into Delahanty's baseball career (certainly more distant and dusty by the 1990s when the book came out), and in particular his switching teams and leagues in the first years of the 20th Century.
