Greetings. The following news story appeared on the local ABC television affiliate about today's White Cane Day celebration. Read on to find out more and hopefully, watch the video story. I'm in the process of compiling my own account of the various activities that went on today. I hope to have that up by the weekend. I also hope to have pictures available on my website in the next week or so. Enjoy.
