[pct-l] trail



I'm pretty sure she's talking about taking her goats to carry the load, not
find the trail for her.....   ;o)

I can walk, I can't bend over to pick stuff up. If I had to I couldn't
hike.<br>I have an officially recognized disability. I also have a right to
do what<br>gives me more mobility. The goats carry all my load, I can't even
wear a<br>fanny pack. Last time I did I found myself lying in the trail
waiting for<br>the Vicodin to kick in just so I could get myself back to the
car. I can<br>load the goats from the tailgate of my pickup and lift
straight across so I<br>don't have to bend.<br><br>I also have a handicapped
parking permit so that I don't have to walk on<br>concrete.<br>Until you
have suffered a disability you can't really judge whose is  worthy<br>of
compensatory help. I suspect you are young and strong and haven't a clue

nope,im old(40;)) and beat up. im sorry about your disabilty but still, how
can a guide dog help you? it can`t. this is still a tranparent attempt to
get around regulations that have nothing to do with you or your disability.
