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.

Oh I want my T home...

Happy Veteran's Day to all those who served in the military and to all those who have or have had family members in the service.


Bob, many times, is "with it" mentally that I have a hard time facing the fact that there is still more recovery to be had. Physically, he has a long way to go, I know. But, as soon as he can stand, I think he'll be good to come home. I can continue to help him exercise. Do I sound like I miss him?


One of the high school bands marched through the VA campus and stopped outside the Community Living Center (the building where Bob is). They played some military marches, then ended with Taps. A single trumpet playing Taps and a single hand-held flag standing away from the band was quite emotional. All of the guys and girls had tears in their eyes.

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."
