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.

step-two-three, turn-two-three

Bob worked with a physical therapist today who said that Bob is solid as a rock if he is holding onto something, but as shaky as a leaf if he is not. All he needs is time to gain strength, then he'll be good as new. Aunika and Bob were dancing the "jig" as he rotated around in a circle. Too funny.
My medicine was delivered UPS today. It's the medicine that is supposed to help me walk faster. I may see results as soon as two days. It may take four - six weeks. Cross your fingers. What it does is fill-in the holes in the nerve covering that was eaten away by my own immune system. My muscles don't get a full signal from my brain to move. Filling in the holes will give my muscles a more direct signal. The drug is called Ampyra by Acordia. We had stock in the company years ago. Too bad we sold it.
