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.

Recovery progresses...

The PIC line is gone! woo-hoo Bob is one step closer to getting back to normal. We had an appointment with the VA Wound Care nurse today. Bob's stomach wound is decreasing in size, which means it's closing. It doesn't need packed anymore. woo-hoo

Bob also had his drop foot molded for a brace that will help lift his foot so he doesn't trip himself. He is walking very well these days, using a walker of course. He uses the wheelchair at the house. It's time to fold up the chair for good. I wonder what type of guff I'm going to get from that proposal? I'll keep you posted.

The evening ended with dinner with his parents, then choir practice. I noticed at practice that Bob was singing more than other nights. It seems, at least from where I sat, he is able to see and follow his music better than before.
