Some good friends of mine shuttled me around in the trailrider. We went for a long trek, they were tired by the end and I was smiling the whole way. We travelled uphills, downhills, on gravel road and trails. We found the trailrider works very well. Here is a video of our adventure. Share...
Trailrider

I have been researching the trailrider for a year now and I finally rented one this week. I have worked outdoors for 20+ years and was really missing the fresh air, trees and flowers. My garden can only compensate for a little bit. My good friends and husband helped me test the trailrider....

My spring project for 2012. I want to build a keyhole garden. I need to have raised beds because of my wheelchair. The compost in the middle of the garden makes so much sense. The nutrients in the compost will disburse into the garden soil keeping the soil rich for growing. See...

Each day, while sitting in the front yard, I am either visited by my neighbours, kids from the park, or Penelope the pidgeon. The color of pidgeons are very beautiful. This bird hung out with me for about an hour before heading off down the back ally in search for food. I found this experience...
