    Thanks for sharing your beautiful photos. I enjoyed seeing them and will have to learn how to post photos too. Seeing them is such a mood lifter.

    Just think of how many patients would have been thought to be hysterical.  A disease all made up in their head which could cause them to lose function and abilities, or to regain those abilities.  So bizarre really.

     

    I've not yet visited Harper's Ferry.  It's on that massive list of things available in the area which I never seem to get to in my speeding life.  So much to do and experience!!

    It's so easy to give in to MS and stay home -- I'm so glad we made the effort -- it was well worth it.
