So life is Ruston is going well. This past weekend we decided to have a pool party at our place “CG’s Apt”. I must say it was a great idea! We could not invite that many people as we have a limited number of pool guests, but we still had a great time. We were the only group grilling at the pool and we sure showed off our skills! Ivan was our executive chef and made some amazing grilled chicken, steaks, sausage… and I am sure I am forgetting other food items. It was a good chance to just hang out and relax! At first there were many people at the pool and I think it was a positive thing for them to see so many competent blind people out and about having a great time. Some of us decided to get into the pool while others decided to sit and chat. We met a handsome young man who it turns out is blind himself but does not use a cane. We nicknamed him O+ as he is everyone’s type! It was interesting though to see him there. Sometimes we get so caught up in our own success having gone through training that we forget it does not have the same effect on all people. Whatever his reasons, at least he was out doing his things. And hopefully he felt encouraged by us. So for now pool parties are just the beginning of our summers!
