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.

Don't forget the camera...

I've never have been much of a picture taker person. When my kids were growing up, I always forgot the camera for special events. I'm not going to be so forgetful anymore.

I've found another real good reason to take pictures.

Bob doesn't remember too much about the last 4 years being with me. He knows everything before that time. :( I took him to the coast yesterday to jog his memory on stuff that we've done over the past four years. We went to the Harley store. Once we got there, he remembered he bought his motorcycle there. He also remembered some of the people and where they sat at their desks.

We went to a variety of Capes to look at the sea lions. Previously, he was always amazed at seeing sea lions in the wild. He remembered those places too.

But, showing pictures to someone with "amnesia" is a perfect reason to not forget the camera before a catastrophic event happens.
