When I first joined this group, they had only three tandems, and doing it for the first time was absolutely wonderful. Then my parents, and other donors, donated money to purchase more tandems. I think they had 12 tandems altogether and eventually, it was hard to get a ride on Sunday afternoons, and I often had to wait about a month before I was called again, but that was all right. We also did hiking in the winter and we often walked around the West Hartford Reservoir, and it was absolutely beautiful. My insurance agent, who is also a very close friend, and I, often go for walks and I will suggest walking around the reservoir. Maybe when we schedule this, I can call you and you can join us. You would love Carol! She's really cool!</div><div><br></div><div>Anyway, hope you enjoy the beautiful weather we are having. Take care and have a great weekend.</div><div><br></div><div>Esther<br><br><div dir="ltr"><span style="font-size: 13pt;">Sent From Esther's Amazing and Awesome iPhone 7+!</span></div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On Sep 4, 2020, at 7:26 AM, Mary Silverberg via CT-NFB <ct-nfb@nfbnet.org> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Hello All,<div>I love walking, especially at the Reservoir in West Hartford, a boat ride on any river , kayaking and I really enjoy eating breakfast out on my patio among the gardens.</div><div>Mary </div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Sep 3, 2020 at 11:10 PM Nathanael T.
