After the success of the Caribbean Cruise, it's time to set another goal. Beverly has come up with a new goal and is working on it already. She plans to "pedal" to California! Her plan is to pedal on her MotoMed everyday, keeping track on the number of miles until she has reached 1784 miles! This is the distance from her house to Ken's house in Fremont, CA. Once she's pedaled 1784 miles, she plans to fly the route and enjoy a few days with her son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren. At 4 miles a day, it will take 446 days, or 14 1/2 months to "reach" California. You can encourage her by asking how she's coming with her goal when you see her or talk to her on the phone. And if you live nearly, she could use YOUR help in reaching her goal. She will do all the pedaling, but needs someone to help her get attached and then detached from the MotoMed. While she's pedaling, she would enjoy your company as well.

While Pauletta was recently visiting, Beverly celebrated a Happy Easter with Mom, Sarah and the Easter Bunny. Then she spent the next day in the emergency room with Pauletta. Everything is fine now, just one of the hassles of having a spinal cord injury. Easter Sunday dinner was wonderful, thanks again to Pauletta.

Beverly's friend Riki spent a week with her in early April and they enjoyed visiting and getting out around Tahlequah and Muskogee. While Riki was visiting, she helped Beverly set up her own "Face Book Page". You can find her under "Deedy Kohl". (This was to appease her family and friends who still insist on calling her DEEDY.) Face Book is a fun and easy way to keep in touch. Try it!

Thanks for continuing your prayers and friendship.
