We left Burlington, Vermont bright and early in the morning to go all the way to Niagara Falls – but before we got to Niagara Falls, we were going to make a side trip to LeRoy, New York where we heard there is a JELL-O museum! Yes, a whole museum about JELL-O! JELL-O was invented in LeRoy and all JELL-O was manufactured there until 1964, when they moved it to Dover, Delaware. The old building is still there in LeRoy and we were asking the museum worker there how much that impacted the town. She said there were a lot of people in the town that had to choose whether they were moving to Dover or staying in LeRoy. She was in Kindergarten at the time but remembers it clearly. Mostly because her best friend’s family was one of the families that moved to Dover so she was sad.

We got to Niagara Falls in time to get some pictures while it was still light. We had originally planned to stay two nights at the falls, but the spreadsheet got adjusted before we left when we added a night in Camden, Maine. We didn’t have much time there, but we made the most of it!
