Bob wanted me to take him something from Dairy Queen that is forbidden. So, I took him a Strawberry Cheesequake Blizzard. That is his favorite. He gobbled it down like he hasn 't eaten for days. I suggested that he slow down and take smaller bites or he's going to get a brain freeze. Did he slow down? No. Did he get a brain freeze? Yes? But. he told me he likes how a brain freeze feels, so he's going to continue to take big bites. Now, I know he bumped his head last May! ;)
Memory...We went on a bus trip to an Elk's Club 15 miles south of Roseburg. It was a trip to show appreciation to Vets. We were given a pizza lunch at a pizza parlor. Bob didn't remember going on the trip.
Later we worked on remembering three words. Short term memory had a time frame of about two minutes. One thing good was that he could laugh at his memory. In fact, we had a few giggles.
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.
