Talented Vets

Last week Kona and I had the pleasure of being invited to attend an Art Show at the VA hospital. We, along with two other therapy teams, were asked to walk around and mingle with the guests and the veterans that were there displaying their art. We had a wonderful time, and were thoroughly inspired by the incredible art that these veterans created.
