I haven't thought of that cartoon for a very long time. It used to be a film board filler on CBC years ago. You thinking of that one reminded me that you have gone on longer canoe trips.

So glad you got to "fly" and feel a new experience.<br />During rehab at hospital we had music time, 30 minutes, on Tuesdays. I was still new to the idea of what my body was going through and having a semi-hard day. My OT wheeled me over and told me to enjoy. I was a little frustrated but there I was getting to pick out a few songs to sing. Instead of someone else singing the two older volunteers just listened to me while one played the piano. My voice surprised me, was a little off but not bad. I didn't want to stop after time was up. That was my turning point with wanting to sing again. Sending you hugs!!Sara Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03097199454433859440noreply@blogger.com
