Oh dear, I'm a few days behind. Bob and I were in Chicago. The weather was great. We left just in time. The weatherman was calling for snow.
Chicago is too fast paced for two slow-pokes like Bob and me. People (strangers) in Chicago were helpful, but could get irritated quickly if you lolligag. We weren't trying to lolligag.
It was great seeing family and friends. Bob's two boys drove to Chicago from MN to visit.
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.
