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.

Good day...

Bob had a good day. He was singing to music, remembering people's names, and attempting to stand by himself more than I've ever seen. I wish I can get him to remember we're not in Iowa. Tonight, I asked him who lives in Pluver (a tiny town in Iowa). He thought for a moment, then said, "A bunch of farmers." cute :-)


A trivia question that was sent to me by a friend was "Name three old-time singers who sang country music." Sad to say, Bob couldn't remember names. If I gave him clues, he remembered. One clue I gave was 'Who is Johnny Cash's wife?' He knew immediately it was June Carter Cash. But without the clue, names escape Bob.


Bob sang Chantilly Lace many times in Karaoke over the years. When I mentioned the song, he rattled the whole song off. The only thing that he lost (but will come back) is his really deep voice. Now, his voice sounds a bit muffled.


A PRAYER FOR TODAY

"Father God, today I choose to give You thanks. Thank You for loving me. Thank You for setting me free. Thank You for the gift of Your Son, Jesus! I know You have a good plan for me. Thank You for leading and guiding me and for keeping me close to You all the days of my life. In Jesus' Name. Amen."
