I love what you said! I never ever question anyone using the handicap spots. Even when they don't look handicap because they may look good getting out of the car but doesn't mean by the time they come out they wont be having a hard time. I think this comes from so many people giving Jim a hard time when he was 22 and on a cane. He didn't "look" like he was having a hard time even though he used a cane. But I will promise you by the time he came out to get back in the car it would be all he could do to get there. If I remember correctly he could walk about 100 steps before his legs started shaking.

I may have to use your comment someday when I am being stared at getting out of our van to come around and meet Jim. Sometimes he takes a minute to open the side door and oh the looks coming from those around me are priceless. It's not a mean look, but one of questioning. Gotta love a small town! lol
