Once again, I'm so excited to go see my t tomorrow. Isaac was with him all weekend. He reports that Bob is responding in complete sentences. The volume is very quiet; but that will increase as his lungs get stronger. The nurses keep telling me that Bob is the same as yesterday and assure me that recovery will take a long time. Well, I already know that. I also think to myself, "T may be the same as yesterday, but he's a far cry from how he was a week ago!" I'll keep that positive thought going and not think of the long haul ahead. The long haul will be over and done with before we realize it.
I'd like to thank all of you again for hanging in there with me. All of your love, support, and encouragement have kept me strong. I'm confident, you'll hang in there to witness Bob's full recovery.
Prayer from Pastor Daryl:
God of grace and glory, holy comforter, healing Spirit, we give you thanks for Bob’s continuing recovery and renewal. Continue to reach out and bring him healing through the hands of those who care for him. Radiate through his life with the light of your presence, that renewed health and strength may be his. Grant to him and those dear to him the continuing assurance of your steadfast love and mercy that they may know the peace that comes from you; through Christ our healer. Amen.

Many waterfalls in the USA are not accessible by wheelchair. Bob, my husband, and I are traveling the USA to search for waterfalls accessible by wheels (wheelchairs, bikes, strollers).
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.
