State parks in west New York
I visited Rochester University multiple times to do experiments, and at the same time, I was exploring west New York state. There are no national parks there, but several state parks are pretty beautiful including the famous Niagara Falls, Letchworth State Park, Sodus Point. I also ran across one of my high school classmates in Rochester, which surprised us both.
Rochester is a nice small city on the US-Canada border, although it’s the third largest city in New York sate. It’s quiet and has everything you need. Could be very cold in winter.

Light house. I’m a big fan of light houses.

Lake Ontario is all about blue. It’s immense, like an ocean, but much more quiet.
