ADA = Cricket Welcome

Last Friday evening we went to dinner with some new friends. When we stopped at their home to pick them up, my new friend said, 'I made reservations -- oh, I didn't realize you would be bringing Cricket -- I better call the restaurant back and see if that is okay!!' It was a reminder that what I take for granted . .thanks to the ADA - Americans with Disabilities Act, Cricket is allowed to go any public place that I am, many people are still unaware of this fact! With this conversation with my friend, I was appreciative that this law was put into place so that the majority of the time -- accessibility is not even a question! Guide Dogs for the Blind has a great resource page to help educate and answer questions on the accessibility of a guide dog. After an enjoyable dinner with new friends & Cricket quietly by my feet, two more people were educated.
