We're being "ramped"

Our church has a program called Tangible Differences. They combine retired people with teens and send then out in the community to do repairs to homes to help people out. (They actually send them out of state from time to time to help with major projects.) They are at work today because schools are closed for fall break, freeing up the teenagers to help.

At 9:00 this morning, two trucks pulled into my driveway. Each contained an older gentleman and a teen. As I type, they are building two ramps at my front door. (One from the sidewalk to the porch and the other at the step from the porch into my front door.) Elvis will be able to be wheeled in and out with two rather jarring bumps each trip. There is only one step at each place and we've been making do but it's still hard to get him in and out gently. He's going to LOVE these ramps!

Thanks, Ramp-Builders!
