Hi Jenny! Oh, I'm sure I'll be full of questions. In fact, I already have
a couple but they'll have to wait until later; because it's about bed thirty
right now, for me. I love amusement parks too; especially roller coasters.
I haven't been there since I was a teen but Cedar Point is still my all time
favorite park. So, that brings up a new question I hadn't thought of. I
guess it would be best to leave the dog at home for a trip to an amusement
park, huh?
Sweet dreams,
Tonia

Hi Tonya,
I used to live, even for a short time, in Belleview, Ohio.
I also went back and forth to a little town, if you'd call it that, that I
don't know the name of, but I lived in a big farm house in the middle of
corn fields. Yuck.
Neither place had transportation for the disabled. Belleview only had one
cab. that was it. I don't think it even had paratransit.
I don't think Sandusky has paratransit, but I could be wrong.
I have it in my wish list to go to Seater Point before I die, I'm the
biggest adrenaline junky you'll ever meet.
to make this dog related. I'm between dogs now. I finally don't have to
use either a wheelchair or walker after fracturing my leg crossing a street
here in Rockford Illinois where I live with my Husband.
I don't have permission yet to go out on the sidewalks, as they are horrible
here, so no fixed route transit for me yet. But when I get it, I'm going to
start walking around the mall in laps to build up my stamina and pace to do
a proper Juno walk, as I have had to put my application at my chosen school
on hold.
I'm doing physical therapy though, so one step at a time.
Welcome to the list. Never feel as though any question is too small or
stupid. We were all there once.
Jenny
