Water

After a heavy rain storm the falls were showing the mighty force of the rushing waters. During summer the water flow becomes almost a trickle and the reck rocks are exposed. These falls were used to create enegergy for the industrial city of Paterson. But it all fell into disrepair and there seam to be no funds to restore this area.

We visit this place occasionally. There are signs promising of an upgrade of this area, but progress is infuriatingly slow.

 We had some very heavy rain recently. Our gutters overflowed. We were lucky. Some towns here in New Jersey and Maryland were devastated.

Wonderful captures of the Paterson falls - just think of the electricity that could be
generated by the power of the falling waters.
