          -short way from car, has a trail that leads to an overlook above the falls (stone/paved and fenced) or a set of stairs that goes to the base of the falls
          -lots of water even in low water season
          -minimally obstructed view, no debris in falls
          -half shaded
          -some bugs, not too bad though
     Little Falls:
          -have to walk down the street to get to the trailhead
          -trail not well marked, but easy to follow. May need trail map to navigate the intersections
          -trail has some incline but otherwise is flat and easy to walk, minimal stepping
          -well shaded
          -more bugs, but still not horrible
          -VERY water dependent, was nothing but a trickle
