Welcome note

When my husband and I set out to find and take pictures of wheelchair accessible waterfalls in every U.S. state, we were excited about the challenge. We gave ourselves no time limit to accomplish our feat; however, we had one mutually agreed upon rule that dictated how long we would stay in any given area. That rule was to never shiver again. Needless to say, adhering to this rule presented a new challenge. The new challenge was to find a waterfall that was actually flowing. Visiting mid-west and eastern states during months that prevented us from shivering are the same months that are hot enough to dry up streams; hence, little or no water flow for waterfalls. The natural scenery and picturesque landscapes warrant a second visit in the early spring right after the snow melts.

Bob is emerging again

Happy Father's Day to all dads. This Father's Day is a great Father's Day. Bob is waving hi, smooching with me, smiling, giving thumbs up, raising his eyebrows to talk, and helping the lift team move his body. He was trying to mouth words. I'm so excited to see him progress.
He is still in the ICU. The doctors want him to be able to cough the gook out of his trach more on his own before sending him to a floor that doesn't have one-on-one nursing contact.

Thank you for your continued recovery prayers and your support to me. Have you thought of your life lesson yet? Email it to me.
