SkyGuy,

I have seen some individuals on powered chairs, etc at both squares. They seem to have a good time. Hope to see you someday at one of the squares.

Have you run over a dog with your chair or scooter in a crowd? I would hate to do that and I bet you were plenty shocked if that happened to you. Dog bites are another matter, too. I have not seen a dog go after a power chair or scooter but it sounds as though it has happened to you. I can understand your apprehension of being around dogs after getting bitten while on your power chair. Hope you healed up and the medical bills were taken care of by the dog's owner.

On that same matter (not the biting), it would be very easy to run a power chair into or over the feet of a child who was running around unsupervised. Can you imagine the reaction of the parent or grandparent to the scooter operator?

A dog at the square will be on a leash and not running around unsupervised. I am not against bringing children to the entertainment - things do go wrong sometimes when the children are not closely supervised.

SkyGuy, hope everything goes good with you and that you will enjoy the squares and the entertainment.
