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.

Easter joke...

Alright, I'm going to pass on an easter joke. I thought it was cute, but Zachary thought it was very dirty; that's a teenager's mind for ya' though. Joke (could be R rated): What did the egg say to the boiling water? It might take me awhile to get hard; I just got laid by a chick about an hour or so ago. hahahaha....
We almost had a major mishap today. I was taking a cat-nap. I heard Zachary say, "Where are you going?" I turned to see Bob at the top of the steps to go down to the basement. I startled him enough that he headed for his wheelchair. That was a good thing, however, he was trying to walk without his walker or anything to hold on to; he was free styling. Needless to say, he almost toppled over. Oh my heavens, I had the bageebers scared out of me.
Besides that, we had a great Easter. We went to church. Zachary played the trumpet for "Christ the Lord is Risen". It was flawless. This was his first solo without the company of his fellow band members playing behind him. He came back to the pew shaking like a leaf.
T walked up to the choir loft to sing the "Hallelujah" chorus with the choir. That made his day.
Trying to roust Bob out of bed is like trying to get a teen out of bed. He doesn't move very fast. And, being the smart ass that he is sometimes, when I ask why he's not out of bed yet, Bob will say, "Because I'm ignoring you." I think I need the neurosurgeons phone number. I'm going to "bean" Bob in the head. :-)
PARTY
There will be a one-year Survival Party, May 29th for those who need more time to plan. That is Memorial weekend, so you'll have a four-day weekend. More details will be coming.
