[Ag-eq] Cold!

[Aleeha Dudley]

Lots of snow and bitter cold here. Sure missing riding: haven’t been on a horse in almost a year, but sure I will get back to it once the weather warms up. But for now, I am getting plenty of practice walking in the snow with my wonderful pup.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
