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.

Only a loose battery...

All it was was the battery! Zachary announced this morning that he dropped my laptop. Now, it doesn't turn on. Crap! My laptop has "my life" on it. I have so much of my writing and classwork on my laptop. Frantically, we drove to Best Buy in Eugene, one hour north of Roseburg, to see if the Geek Squad could fix my computer. Believe this...He looked at the computer, turned it over, then took the battery out. Then, he plugged the battery back into the computer. It turned on! It wasn't broken! It was only a loose battery. That was the good news. The bad news was that we drove for one hour to see the Geek Squad for five minutes. I'll be positive...I got "my life-line" back.

Before this emergency, I had all intentions of doing a chair yoga tape for stretching with my t. It's another form of exercise we need to do. Even though I hid Bob's wheelchair for the day, he refuses to give it up totally. He'll use it part of the day. He says, "It's faster."
