Prairie Waters

Isabel had her first spring outing on Monday. Sunshine, warmth, and no jacket needed as we headed out in the late afternoon. Isabel's increasing strength and balance meant for an easy transfer from her portable wheelchair to the car. And away we went west of Regina towards Pense. Mum said that the hour's drive made real the flooding that she has been seeing on each newscast on TV (local and national). She estimated that 40% of the farm land was flooded. We are thankful for Mum's increasing mobility and the spring warmth and wind to get the snow moving and to dry the ground.
