#smalltowninertia David at home September 2016
Early Thursday morning I had a telephone call from David, his SARA audio scanner (Fundraised via social media) had ceased working.
David was beside himself with worry.
A quick telephone call to the wonderful Sight and Sound technology later and I was relayed a way to potentially fix the problem. Juggling caring chores at home I immediately headed over to David’s home on the bus.
The SARA device is a lifeline for David. Samantha, the electronic voice that reads aloud any printed material scanned has evolved into being as important, in the absence of an actual person, a companion, a voice that cuts through David’s 100% NLP (Nil Light Perception) blindness and informs hen reading bills or a newspaper and transports and soothes when reading pages of books.
Thankfully, the fix worked and in no time I had cleaned, repaired the SARA device and once again it was working perfectly and Samantha’s voice sang out. David was overjoyed.
Afterwards, David and I took the time to make some portraits together. I’ll be returning next week to work some more upon a coming update to his story of enduring blindness, alone, in 2016.

Small Tortoiseshell Butterfly.
I don't take enough shots of creepy crawleys and flutterbyes compared with in my youth. I guess i'm just not agile enough these days. Fortunately at Hopton Hall , where i took this , the gardens are tiered , and so the plants are nearer to eye level ! No bending, yippee. 😊. That and an abundance of butterflies and bees.
The Llano, Tx airport this weekend had STOL "Short Take off & landing" contest I took this shot of airplane taking off.
I saw a lot of gatekeeper butterflies today and several darters and a possible migrant hawker also several skippers, but they proved to be camera shy generally.
Many thanks to you ALL for the views, faves and comments you make on my shots it is very appreciated
This little teapot is approximately 2 inches tall so you can only have a small cup of tea!
