mommazooms (Jun 22, 2009 2:32:22 PM)
They were eating at the bottom of the bird feeder & then the mom's froze - the chicks got into a tight group - a red fox ran through the backyard, stopped, looked at them and ran off!

Jim_VA (Jun 22, 2009 2:34:03 PM)
neat

mommazooms (Jun 22, 2009 2:34:28 PM)

did you get many options on your chair, Sue

jenniesue (Jun 22, 2009 3:02:44 PM)
the seat raises and lowers. it tilts and fully reclines; other than that it is pretty basic.

pete46 (Jun 22, 2009 3:03:08 PM)
how long did it take you to get it?

jenniesue (Jun 22, 2009 3:04:00 PM)
i told them i wanted racing stripes and a built in cd player. they just looked me kind of funny.

pete46 (Jun 22, 2009 3:04:08 PM)

jenniesue (Jun 22, 2009 3:04:38 PM)
it's been about 6 weeks

pete46 (Jun 22, 2009 3:05:08 PM)

Jim_VA (Jun 22, 2009 3:05:15 PM)

jenniesue (Jun 22, 2009 3:05:49 PM)

pete46 (Jun 22, 2009 3:07:30 PM)
jim, rollx sells used minis already converted.

pete46 (Jun 22, 2009 3:07:55 PM)

Jim_VA (Jun 22, 2009 3:09:28 PM)

mommazooms (Jun 22, 2009 3:09:48 PM)
Mine was $38K and it's great but it's a sin what they charged for a w/c

pete46 (Jun 22, 2009 3:10:24 PM)

jenniesue (Jun 22, 2009 3:28:25 PM)
I can't remember. The rep said he would request a special one for comort.

mommazooms (Jun 22, 2009 3:29:45 PM)
What kind of seat cushion are you getting? If you're in the chair for any length of time, you need a great cushion under your butt! I had a Jay2 gel cushion for 11 years and I loved it!

Jim_VA (Jun 22, 2009 3:29:57 PM)
I have a rear attendant controller, a vent tray, and battery tray

mommazooms (Jun 22, 2009 3:31:28 PM)
