Good Falls...Good Folks!1884 viewsWhen one hikes to waterfalls there is always the chance you will meet someone that is Genuine.

Met the owner of this falls land he was just that, Genuine, straight forward and hard to turn away from and take the photo I came for.

Could have easily pulled up a chair and spent the remaining daylight learning about his life.
