    So so sorry to hear of your mobility issues Marianna but keep pushing on I am sure you will. I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my knee last year I was sent [surprisingly to me] on a 2 day x 6 week exercise class at a Gym centered...

    Can recommend everything that the Cap listed. Been there, done that, would enjoy a revisit. Love Whitby, partly because I like the HF house just outside town. Could spend another several days poking around and photographing the Abbey...

    I've been there only in summer. Wouldn't attempt a winter visit. My maternal grandfather grew up in the southern foothills of that mountain range. We visited "up home" the second Sunday in August each year for the family reunion, but...

    I have two wonky knees and cannot take a step without a cane or walker. Yes, I agree that concerning exercise that you're walking a very fine line between adding strength and triggering another flare-up.

    Went on the underground tour at the National Coal Mining museum last year. Had a local ex-miner as the guide and he asked everyone where they had come from. I was too ashamed to say I was from Nottinghamshire, even though I had...

    That must have been very frustrating for your mom, Adanor. Were you near a coal town or something? Hopefully not Wally's pigeons!
  • RickAns
    Yes, I remember my mother hanging out clothes, cloth diapers, sheets, towels, etc. On one very warm and breezy day, by the time she got the last item hung on the line, everything was dry!

    I doubt that Ohio winters were much different from south central NY. You want different, you need to head up into the Adirondacks.
