I think we all have stories that are funny as well as 'you've gotten be kidding
me' but here's one you'll enjoy.Ifanyone's been to the Grand Hotel in Mackinac,
you'll know that there's an enormous hill to climb to get from the street to
the hotel entrance. I was in a Braun TriWheeler and slalomed up the hill
because the device just didn't have the guts to go straight up the hill. So we
made it to the top and went out on the porch. You can see 3 of the Great Lakes
from there. Well, we proceeded to have a couple of cocktails and it came time
to leave. I figured, I can go straight down the hill and be ok. Well down the
hill I went. That triwheeler was flyin'!!I got to the bottom all in one piece
but the gal that I was with says, 'do you know you ran over a cigarette back
there?' I said 'no' and looked down and the things was on fire! I took her
coke, threw it on the fire area and limped back to my van. Funny today-scary
then.

Oh man, im fine, but i gotta story to tell ya, i was in the living room taking
off my black vest and putting it on the front railing by the door when,,it
caught my joystick and the joystick on my wheelchair. Made me shoot up and i
fell all the way straight back,it was like i was in a rocket ship with my feet
in the air and my back on the floori hit my head but not to badJosh my cousins
son and dad and my aunt Carol connected the Hoyer chains that i use every day
to get in the wheelchair and pulled me up, the chair too, batteries stayed in
im glad.
