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.

Am I on vacation?...


Once again, Bob made me feel good about the new addition and our house. Months ago, he told me he thought we were staying in a hotel. Today, he told his mother that our house is really my vacation home. woo-hoo! However, if I did have a vacation home, it would not be in Oregon. I'd be on some remote island, basking in the sun with a cocktail brought to me by a suntanned muscular model. ;-)

It's amazing to me how the brain works. Memory is so specific. It's as specific as each brain cell has it's own duty. It's not so much the general area of the brain performs a task, it's each cell performs a task of it's own.

Good news about Zachary... Last week, he missed tryouts for a band group in school that is for the best players only. The band director called our home today requesting him to tryout tomorrow morning. That boosted Zachary's self-esteem ten-fold.
