[Colorado-talk] water parks and canes

[Becky Sabo]

Hi Maryanne,
You can get a case to put your cane in I think Maxey aids sells it or
Independent living but I do not know for sure if it is water proof.  I also
have a question to you or to the list.  I have a laptop that has windows
seven on it and Jaws 11 was not working fon it and I tried uploading a new
version of JAWS and some reason it went to demo mode and now I cannot use my
laptop.  I only can use my desktop and I need to use my laptop for my summer
classes.  Is there any other free or low cost screen readers that I could
use with my laptop intill DVR decides if they will buy me a updated version
of JAWS?

Hello Federation family,

I was wondering what you do with your canes when you want to visit a water
park?  I have a season pass for Elitch Gardens and want to know what
techniques people use for navigating the water park.

The dry parts of the park are just fine except for the ride operators who
still ask if I have one of the disability permission passes, but that's
another matter entirely.  How do you successfully navigate water slides and
rides that don't permit loose articles and drop you off somewhere different
from where you got on?

 

Thanks for all of your ideas.  Perhaps if people are interested we should
plan a social outing to Elitches over the summer.
