Saturday was a busy day for us. It started with giving service at the Salt Lake Tennis club. People with Prosthetic legs and wheel chair people were invited to attend a tennis clinic and our service was to shag balls. This clinic was sponsored by a national group that goes to various locations to help people learn how much they can do even with a prosthetic leg. It was very interesting to learn about. There was a woman that had lost her leg 2 years ago and she told of her difficulties and how getting a foot and leg that works for her has taken a lot of time. Basically, each person's new leg and foot is special, "just for that person." An issue that they have, is they have to take their leg off every so often because the liners get wet and have to be dried. It was a great morning. The only sad thing was, only two people came to the clinic, when dozens could have come and learned to be more active.
We were home for an hour and left for a movie that taught us about the Nile river. That is one dangerous river. The guide and his buddy are the only two people that have traveled it from start to finish in safety. It took 114 days. There are lots of white water rapids and crocodiles. Even one area they went through that shot at them just because. Many people depend on the Nile river for their water.
We were home for an hour and went to the Bees ballgame and Otto Bock company party. Five hours at a ballgame was a bit too long for me. The Bees won.
