I guess I've been having fun because time has sure flown by! I decided I better get caught up with the blog.
My Arizona trip to see Tom included moving on to Cleveland for a few days. My sister Julie asked if there was a van that Jim could drive a wheelchair into to make transportation more feasible. After some research, we found a perfect solution. It was an electric wheelchair that Jim could drive up a small ramp and lock the wheelchair in place electronically. This would allow Julie and Jim to be much more mobile.

Jim successfully drove the chair into the van and got it locked into place. It's a great system. They were hoping for some good weather so they could get out for some adventures.

So I left the cold Midwest and headed back home to California. Surprisingly, our weather was not great, which is unusual. But it was good to be home. The nasty weather changed rapidly and I was treated with the view of a rainbow from my window.

I bought my hummingbird attracting plant. It attracted a couple hummingbirds so far. Also, a red eyed vireo spent time going from blossom to blossom getting something out of the flower. They eat insects so maybe? Fun to watch it.
