In this episode of the iCantCU Podcast, I talk about #NFB21, the National Federation of the Blind’s National Convention. Like last year, it is virtual again this year. I also talk about the new white cane I received from the NFB and how Ziggy loved the shipping tube it came in. Show notes at https://www.iCantCU.com/133
NFB National Convention
The National Convention always has a ton of things going on. For me, one of the things I do every year is help out in the NFB-NEWSLINE booth. The room I was in this year didn’t have much traffic, so I got to speak to a couple of other NFB-NEWSLINE state co-ordinators. We talked about NFB-related things, general blind stuff, and sports.
Back From NYC
Ziggy had a ball with the 60-inch tube my white cane came in. It was better to see his reaction to Jane when she came home. It was her first time home since moving back to her NYC apartment a couple of weeks earlier. He was so happy to see her. He was equally as sad when she went home a few days later.
New Orleans Next Year
I look forward to #NFB22 in person in New Orleans next summer. Maybe I’ll get to attend the entire convention unlike 2019 in Las Vegas. Thanks American Airlines. Listen to what happened in episodes 31 and 32.
