Hi, Michael!

Welcome to CT and welcome to the list!  Yes, I can agree that it must be
difficult getting transportation in suburbia.  Sounds as though you have a
very positive attitude, though, and hope we all can meet you some time.  Are
you planning to attend the national convention or even our state convention
which occurs in November?

Lots of luck to you.  I'm sure you'll adapt very well.

Esther

Hello to everyone out there in NFB cyber space. My name is Michael
McDermott, I am kind of a newby to Ct. since I moved here 2.5 years ago with
my wife from Boston.  I am not new to the Federation though as I have been
blind since age 8 and I am 39 years old and I have been apart of NFB for
most of that time, so glad the national organization exist and so glad to be
able to attend my local chapter.  It is nice to know that there are others
of us out there who had to confront similar issues and overcome them.
Through this organization and through the new mailing list perhaps we can
build on all of our strengths and experiences to help each other.  As I said
before I am a transport from Boston, consequently I have had culture shock
and still am having it periodically with my transition to CT.  Perhaps my
fellow brothers and sisters can help me with that.  Getting back to why I
moved here, it's because I don't have any living family or relatives in
Cambridge MA. where I grew up, also I married my wife in Bristol 10 years
ago on May 26, so I wanted to move her back to her home town so as to be
closer to my new family.  I think I underestimated the difficulties living
in subberbia has for a blind person though as well as the various
transportation issues.  Hope to meet most of you folks and I am sure I will
adjust after all you folks did! Please excuse any negative vibes about CT.,
it has  some positive elements and I do like living in Suberbia as aposed to
the big city, but am just having some issues regarding the loss of
independence and the difficulty of the terrain.
