The Chair

We went into Columbia for the day today. Grandpa George has moved to a nursing home facility. A friend helped move his chair from home today. The friend had a neat cart he used to move it. In this picture he is explaining how it works. I'm glad Grandpa has his special chair. I was also happy to be able to visit with him.
