A short winter walk

This fall we received a gift of 5 pairs of snow shoes. We’ve been waiting for snow and it finally came (in abundance). After lunch today, we strapped them on with ease and began our first walk. The walk started out a little tricky as we traversed a steep hill.

After a few hundred yards, we learned one of the most important lessons of snow-shoeing: if one foot is stuck, try moving the other foot.

We made it past the barn and towards the pavilion. The day entered its blueing period and we turned back towards Farmview.

Fears were overcome, high fives exchanged and toes warmed up.

Tomorrow - we venture a little further.

CELEBRATING TRIFORM VOLUNTEER COWORKERS

By Meg Henderson The new Triform co-workers for the year 2016-17 Triform’s volunteer coworkers are special people.

This year I am particularly struck by the dedication of our coworkers and inspired by what talents they offer so open-heartedly.

You Must Be...

You Must Be... by Noah Levinson P. Wilson The resemblance was so striking that the cliche left my mouth almost automatically: “You must be Pierre’s brother.” He was. Light brown and reddish hair, a ruddy complexion, some ineffable quality in the eyes and lips—it was just short of eerie, like seeing some alternate-universe version of Pierre himself. Pierre, who has Down syndrome, is in his late thirties, well into his second decade at Triform. He is easily one of the most popular figures in the community, winning many hearts with a combination of charm and calculated mischief, without the benefit of very much language ability. Pierre is just great. Nearly everyone who works with him falls in love.
