Tuesday, May 27 was a red-letter day. Isabel, accompanied by family members, spent two hours touring the MacKenzie Art Gallery and Wascana's trails. Mum recognized the first person she saw in the Gallery which was a neat way to begin our first adventure outside of Wascana. We toured Dorothy Knowles: Watercolour Portraits of Saskatchewan and a competitive exhibit of fine professional craft pieces by Saskatchewan artists. We sat with life-size sculptures of humans under huge indoor plants that included palm and other tropical trees.
Then it was outside to the trails to enjoy flowering ornamental crab-apples, lilacs just waiting to burst out, and 40 minutes of strolling and rolling down the trails between the Wascana Rehabilitation Centre and Wascana Lake. A calm, sunny, merry May day.
Isabel is fortunate to have a portable ventilator (laptop computer size) to enable these outings to happen.
Our outing ended with time on the terrace near Mum's room enjoying the newly planted bedding plants. We came in so Isabel could get ready to host friends from Abernethy in the sunny solarium that is in another part of the unit of Wascana where she lives.
Mum visited.... we rested..... :)
