They’ve actually done this before–the last time was 1969.
If you’re curious about the falls, now is the time to go. Whether you choose to take a boat ride up to the falls or just enjoy the scenery from the nearby park, the falls are breathtaking.

Since I’m currently road tripping from Philly to Oklahoma City, I decided to pop up to Ontario to check out the falls from the Canadian side of the border. I’m so glad I added this to my itinerary even though it’s not exactly the straightest route. Seeing the northern parts of the US and the southern part of Ontario was a nice change. Usually when I drive OKC->Philly or vice versa, it’s through Indiana and Ohio, which I’ve seen many times.
