Road trip!

So, I realize my "road trip" metaphor may be getting a little tired... but it just remains so applicable it's hard to resist!

The irony is that we were able to take an actual road trip this week - no metaphor necessary!

The physical therapists have helped teach me safe & proper techniques for getting Jason from one place to another (he's a fall risk, you know!) and once we figured out how to get into the car it was a whole new ball game...

... specifically Hamp's Little League ball game!




There was so much much to be grateful for: 
• Hamp & Sam got to love on their dad!
• Jason got to see his son play ball!
• Hamp caught a sweet pop fly at second!
• Friends brought hotdogs and snacks to the game so we could all (ball players included!) stay nourished! (although Jason said the "beer man" at the Rifle public ball fields does not do a good job!)
• And for a few hours last Wednesday night, Jason was able to get out of the hospital and get back to "normal" doing one of his very favorite things with some of his very favorite people!
