There's just something inside me that when we go to see my grandmother and then when we leave, I have this feeling like we're abandoning her. Although I know we aren't....it's just that crazy sense of humanity.

I did get to meet one of the other "residents"......Judith Cook.....she seems to be the resident person in charge of keeping the pond area clean. I actually went outside to look at the fish and see if I could locate all 5 turtles they have and I did. Showed her some of them.....got her life story.....she was leaning over to look at one of the turtles I saw under a bush and then she says to me:

Can I get a hand?

So I said: Sure, for what?

She said: No, literally YOUR HAND!

I was like....OHHHHH....

She was about to fall down.....duh on me!

in my defense, the wheelchair i used had a huge "AMG" sticker on it, so i thought it had better handling..... i was wrong

I considered the wheelie thing.....but couldnt for the life of me figure out how they do it....so I left well enough alone and was happy that I was able to back up in reverse!
