Subject: [Blindtlk] A List Newbee and a Question About Small Town 
Life andBlindness

Hello,
  My name is Chris and I am a very new member of this list.

  I am currently living in NC in One reason that I am interested 
in joining this list is that I have just moved to a very tiny 
town with spotty paratransportation and I am in a semi-rural 
area.  Thus, although things are not too far from where I live 
(including where I will be working starting this week, 
groceries...) they are not accessible on foot.  Thus, I would 
love any advice other small-towners have for a newbie to small 
town life.  I am a bit stressed since I am not sure how I will be 
doing transportation starting in July since the Paratransit 
system noted that they are likely going to lose their funding for 
transportation at that time.

  A little more about who I am:).  I am a guide dog user from GEB 
and have a wonderful and extremely mellow yellow lab named 
Armand.  I am totally blind and hav been so for the last about 13 
years.  I am originally from Ohio but moved to NC for a job 
opportunity.

  Any helpful hints, advice, or suggestions would be very 
sincerely appreciated.
With very warm regards,
Chris
