  Another day another problem solved....Hubby has a problem with dizziness...it comes and goes pretty bad....so he doesn't like to walk much...so today I take him to walk Walmart and it is only about 15 minutes and he wants to go to the car...so I say ok let's walk a thrift store ...easy in easy out.... we get there and he gets real dizzy....I turn around and there sets this ...I don't' know what it is called...but hubby set down in it....and we bought it....hubby calls it his "new vehicle" and he loves it....so now instead of going home we are going for a walk at Hells gate and a picnic....hey....we got to do what we got to do....and yes we called the neurologist and she says it's just part of the package we are facing....well we are dealing with it this way...have a great day all...it's beautiful out there....(oh we named it "old blue")

  Hubby and I decided to stop at the thrift store...I was just walking along not really looking at anything when I saw this solid wood homemade wagon.....the wheels have axles and turn the hitch comes down and you can pull it....but it was red and green......but when I saw the hearts on the wheels I knew I wanted it for our front patio for valentines.......so I for got to get pictures of the before but right now turning the green into a soft gray....picked up a few decor from the dollar store and will show this off when I get it all done...the wagon measures 30 inches long x 20 inches high solid wood......and cost me $7.49 plus tax...I am excited about it...just perfect for the patio
