I sent Bob to church with friends today. I felt like I did that day a long time ago when I put one of my kids on the school bus for the first time. I was nervous about everything going ok. I worried about his IV pump beeping in the middle of the service. I worried about Bob falling. I worried about him telling far-fetched stories. I worried about his memory. I worried about him not having me around.
As far as I know, things were fine. Bob said he missed me though. Some day I'll stop being a worry-wart.

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.
