Truly a special day in N. B. at the G&CC.
Words can't express the feeling we all got when Ron gave the SoloRider a test run. Just seeing him take a swing, with his loving wife Zelda on hand, was very special.

With the generosity of the Spinal Cord Injury of Saskatchewan, I now have a GlassOuse. It's a bluetooth head mounted computer mouse. I'm able to rest my shoulder & paint by moving my head. More Creating, Less Pain! #AbilityTechRocks
