Nothing is better than finding out you have had an impact of some kind on someones life. And so it's become one of my favorite things to hear from folks who are inspired by my videos and/or my music.
This video comes to me threw my friends at Wildergimp. http://www.wildergimp.org/ .
Wildergimp is a organization that is doing great things for the disabled hikers in the great state of Florida including purchasing Trailrider one wheeled, two man driven carts that allow the disabled to go where no disabled has gone before. (Sorry, too much Star trek as a child.)
The people at Wildergimp have also been instrumental in change trail regulations to finally allow the disabled the enjoy what the Americans with Disability's act insures every American. > http://www.ada.gov/
The right to enjoy the wilderness. I mean come on. It's the 21st century. We should be floating folks up into the mountains on hover-carts by now. But as that's not possible yet, and thanks to these good people physically challenged folks are getting the opportunity to enjoy the wilderness. Some for the first time in their lives.
Stop by and check out the many good things they do.
