We have someone in Ipswich who needs a bariatric (large) wheelchair and a used hospital bed. Let me know if you have either and maybe we can help transport it to a resident in Ipswich. Thanks.

Merry Christmas to All - We need a new, or lightly used wheelchair for someone we care a great deal about for her work in our communities, and given the circumstances by which she was hurt. She’s coming out of the hospital soon. I usually have 2-3 but I do not at the moment. I need to leave by 1pm today. Jim

We have 4 of these nice well-built ladderback chairs that need a home. We were thinking $120 or b/o was a fair price. If your interested lt us know. (978)468-5529

A friend needs an electric scooter to take off for Thanksgiving! They actually will take it with them on a plane. Apparently this nice gent can only walk 5 or so steps before he needs to sit down and all his family is trying to make the most of the Holiday. Many thanks.

So far these heat pumps we installed in March are fantastic! When things heat up this summer this will be a good place to cool down. Along those line, as it warms up, I will start getting calls from people to put in AC units. I have never minded doing them, but could use a few volunteers. Call me if you have a good back and would be willing to help on rare occasion. If I had 2-4 volunteers we would be done in few weeks. Call me at (978) 468-5529.

Take a drive! The Mohawk Trail!

From Alabama to Idaho, here are six scenic drives in the Lower 48 states that are especially enticing when fall colors are at their peak.

Great day just before July 4th! Super easy…show up at 9 am, suit up and flap around for a few hours and walk away. Aaron from Coast to Coast is awesome! We have a perfect safety record.
