That is fantastic that you were able to do that Tammie!
 
I have also looked at Wheelchair Getaways but they want quite a good sum of money daily to rent a van.  We have dozens and dozens of caregiving agencies in the Tucson area but they all want a minimum of four hours and then that cost is AT LEAST $40-$60 a pop.
 
We would be on the road all of the time if we had somebody willing to go with us and pay their own expenses.  My husband would love to show me much of the Southwest and continue on up to Northern California where the redwoods are.  I think there may be somebody in our future will be willing to do that and, if so, I can't wait!
 
Again, good for you!  And I enjoyed your web site!

I live in northern California and in the last couple of years have decided to try traveling. I was always scared to before because my security seems to be here at home, PCA's, lift... my first trip after ten years post injury was to Arizona and Disneyland on the way back. My next trip was a flight to Georgia. In both cases I rented a van from Wheelchair Getaways and they not only gave me the name of a caregiving agency in the area I was visiting but also the name of a place where I can get rental equipment.
 
Take care and play nice Tammie Lou
