Photos

Here's a photo (left)of an accessible racing car from the NY Metro Disability Expo. (Please double click for a larger view.)

And a head shot of my cat Buddy (right).

It's a union thing. The cat demands equal time.

How's your winter going?

[visual description: A photo entitled My Winter Has been FUN but Snowy from Marty, an iReporter, showing his wood ramp covered with snow taken from the top of the ramp- snow is piled high all over - on the rails, etc.]

And here's more fun in the snow- wheelchair donuts!



and a wheelchair user pulling a sled!

Sunday morning walk

[image description: A sign on a yard reads: Holy Roller Painting with a phone number underneath.]

I was zooming along minding my own business when I ran across this sign.

It looks like an angel with a paint roller in his/her hand is their logo.

Kind of cool on a Sunday morning.

Saturday morning walk

As I was cruising along on my morning walk, I was able to get a few photos - wheelchair view. Below on the left there's a path near a park- you can see how high the flowers look from the Beast (my power chair). To the right, I've added a closeup of yellow day lilies that actually greet me as I go by since they've grown toward the sidewalk. It's quite wonderful to actually slightly brush as I go past them. I'm hoping to pick up a used tripod to hold everything steady so I don't have to ask for as much assistance with taking photos and can use my assistive devices. New hobby?

ski for light pictures

I don;t yet have photos from this year's trip but if you click above you can see photos of a sitski for mobility impaired skiers and of blind skiers with their guides!
