It takes a significant number of resources and skill to provide a satisfactory safe place for multiple blind persons. This is being accomplished. ❤️

As a mother of two blind teenagers, it was so exciting to tour a factory setting that provides meaningful employment opportunities for the visually impaired.

We are blessed to have this in Wichita. #kansas #explore_joy #explore

A few pics from our school adventure.

Envision Industries | Manufacturing Jobs for the Visually Impaired

Our Wichita manufacturing facility, which employ hundreds of people with blindness or low vision, manufactures products such as disaster aid items, military protective wear, and a variety of plastic bags and can liners.

#today - Spent a lot of time outdoors. This is week 3 of a running program and it's been a great decision although very different than I expected. After years of chronic stress and COVID, I lost significant weight and so reapproaching a physical regimen was needed but terrifying. So far? 👍

The weather was gorgeous today and so many geese (not pictured). #Kansas does have some wicked thorns.

Kansas is definitely misrepresented in the media - mostly defined as a fly over state and/or connected to Wizard of Oz.

Somehow this picture seems to capture both themes. 😆 🌪️ ❤️

No tornadoes but was a typical beautiful day. I spend a lot of time outdoors so I'm going to create a new hashtag. #wichitawild

Dogwalk. Pepper standing beside a large tree as it's undergoing deep color change. Just gorgeous. 😍

I miss the growing season and gardening but the colors? I really enjoy.

One of the photos from a recent walk. I was on a goose hunt. 😆 ~an enormous flock of geese arrived.

I have a couple of fun settings on my camera that I can use. This was one. Kind of reminded me of the unnecessary scary looking sky and dramatically shaped SM landscape that we're forced to endure.

Definitely ready for the holiday.
Saw these at Menards. ❤️ 🎃

I only took pictures for the kids as we already have plenty of pumpkin projects at home....that we still need to do. 🙃

This is a busy time of year for me. Finding ways to balance SM is difficult.
