Back to the Traditional Post
Marian June 10th, 2008
For the past several months I have treated this area as a Photo Journal… But, recently decided to change back to a more traditional Journal page! I still continue to Photo Journal, you can get there by clicking here.
Things have been a little chaotic since the 22nd, when school ended for the year. I spent a good bit of the time building a swing for Roy… It is more than just a yard toy. I designed it to allow him to grow into it, rather than outgrow the swing. It's constructed out of 5 4×4s, 2 2×6s, 2 2×4s, and several carriage bolts, and swing hardware. It will allow 2 adults to simultaneously swing… and the cross board doesn't bow….It has been in use for a few weeks, and it has already made a huge difference in Roy's sensory needs.
He is already packing for our trip to Colorado. What a time of year to go to the desert!
We have learned something in our preparations for the trip, actually, we were reminded of something we already knew. People with disabilities, get into National Parks for life for free. You have to present National Park folks with a letter from a Doctor stating the disability.
More to come later….
