Lost and Return of Old Growth Forests of New England:
With apologies for not being able to post for a while, however, among other things that had been going on these last few months, I had been unable to gain access to my laptop computer for about two months or so for some reason, until now. For those not already in the know and without going into all of the specific details within this particular blog post of mine, in late November of last year I had gone to the emergency room at the Central Vermont Medical Center (CVMC), was admitted and stayed in one of the units there for two full weeks.

In addition, even though I was using a cane, having taken a fall and skinning my knee a bit sometime in between then and now. Due to this, because of recently posting on my Facebook page about needing as well as wanting to obtain a new walker with a seat, I was generously and kindly gifted with a premium high quality walker/wheelchair earlier yesterday (Thursday). It is such a blessing, indeed, particularly since my balance has been rather poor of late (read: vertigo) and I have also been somewhat weak at times.
