oh, Wendy, i'm sorry to hear this. It would be nice if you knew someone
who would enjoy going to Margaretville with you, who may have a vehicle too!

Mom sold her house and moved to an apartment that is in easy walking
distance to medical, groceries, mall shopping and such. Her knees are
pretty bad, so she can't walk too far. We feel much better knowing that
she is in a less isolated location (her house was in a lovely community
but the nearest facilities for anything was 8 miles away..... unless the
local pub and convenience store count )
