Everyday is getting easier and easier for Bob and me to just get in the car to run errands. Bob is able to walk with no assistance, so he's able to get a shopping cart and then, return it to the shopping cart "hopper".
Bob is relearning how to use the debit card machine. Next, we'll tackle the self checkout line.
Bob still doesn't remember what he's done from morning to afternoon. Gentle reminders are the key. He's ok with me having to remind him all the time. He knows and recognizes that he has very short-term memory.
Remember to order your Personal Medical Information book. Take the worries out of having to remember medical information during emergency situations.
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.
