Winter Months in NY

Hi all:
Thought I'd update you on some of Jeremy's adventures so far this year. A couple of weeks ago, he went Skiing! Yes, he actually doned a pair of skis, and hit the slopes--of course, he started on the bunny slope, but at least he tried it! He had a good time, but did find that he was a bit sore the next day. But he admits that he will do it again soon.
For his next adventure, he took the train from Syracuse to NYC to spend a couple of days with his roomy from Iraq. He and Koosh toured the city, drank some beers and visited with some of Jer's acquaintenances from Odessa. He had a good time and made it back in one piece.
Other than that, life is still moving along as we hoped. Jer is still doing the research project in Syracuse, and is waiting for a final fitting on a new brace that will use electrical impluse to help with his "drop foot". He can only use them on one leg at this point, but hopefully as time goes on, he can use two.
Enjoy the rest of the winter--hopefully it won't be too much longer or harder!! Take care and keep those prayers going for those in need of them! Love to you all.
