Welcome Michelle!

I'm Lyn and I am on dog number 8. I have Aristotle, an almost 7 year old
Lab/Golden mix from Seeing Eye. Ari and i share a one bedroom apartment in
a senior complex in San Diego, CA. I was an active guy before the pandemic
and intend to get back to my activities after everything opens up. I enjoy
walking, doing my two ZOOM activities - our writing group and BINGO.

Hope to hear from many of you list members at NAGDU this summer at the ZOOM
NFB National Convention. Nothing like the in-person Convention but
hopefully next year we all will be back to normal again!

Lyn and Aristotle
