Hi Jorge and everyone,

You are correct, Jorge; LCB and CCB (Colorado Center for the 
Blind) have apartments in which their students live.

There is also BLIND Inc., which is another great option for NFB 
camps.
Its similar to LCB, but they don't have their own apartments, 
which I think LCB does.
Usually the adults stay in a complex which is somewhere more 
towards the center of the city if I'm not mistaken.
As far as activities,
its basically the same thing Sophie described,
but for the adult program includes 3 drop off routs and a 
"graduation" walk which I think is like 5 miles.
(I'm guessing LCB does something similar but I've never been 
there.)

 Hmmm!
 Yes.
 We'd always go to different places, as well.
 Of course, your dorms were better, than the living quarters at 
the
 school for the blind.
 Blessings, Joshua

 There's a reeeeeeeeeally great camp at Louisiana Center for the
 Blind.  It's probably a lot like the ones you attended, Joshua,
 with four classes in the morning (OandM, braille, home ec, and
 tech) and fun activitie in the evening.

 I wasn't trying to be the moderator.
 I was just asking them to take it off list, because my endbox is
 getting crowded with E-mails.
 Now, to the camps.
 The only Summer camps I attended, were at the Arkansas School 
for
 the
 Blind, so I'd like to hear more about these NFB camps, so I can
 compare them, to the camps I attended, at ASB.
 Thanks, Joshua

 josh, you are not the moderator.  But I'll say, if you're going
 to discuss a
 blindness camp or something else, do change subject lines.

   Sophie, it's Kurzweil!
   Hey!
   Weren't you the one that sang, at the showcase of talent, last
   year?
   Just curious, (I know I'm off topic.)
   Thanks, Joshua

    Yep.  As someone else said, it was created by NFB and some
 other
    company that I can't remember off the top of my head.  The
 App
  is
    free, and it's totally iPhone accessible.

     Valerie, have you heard of the Blio?
     http://www.blio.com
     This is the online version of the KNFB reader, which is the
    accessible
     Kendall, for the blind.
     Thanks, Joshua

     Hi,

     So one of the features of the kendle from what i hear is
 that
   it
    will
     recommend books to you based on what you've read on kendle.
     I gather the Kendle is not accessible.  True?
     if so, does anyone know of a mac ap or IOS ap that will
    recommend books to
     you based on ∑i don't know, something you've read?

     also, does anyone know of anything that will read or
 translate
    epub or mobi
     format books?

     thanks
