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.

Party tomorrow...

Tomorrow is the BIG one-year survivor party, and the crying has already begun. We went to the VA TCU where Bob stayed for five months. I timed it so we arrived at shift change. That way, we were able to see more staff. They were excited to see Bob. The gave him big hugs and encouraging words. Yes, he was choked up.

T's parents arrived today. His sister and her husband arrived yesterday. It's so nice to have them here to celebrate with us.

T walked out on the porch to greet his parents. He did not use any assistance. That was a far cry from how he looked the last time they saw him a year ago. What a good feeling that was!

Sad news-Gary Coleman, an actor, died of a brain aneurysm today. He was only 42 years old.
