I used to have a good system for that one at Ochsner
foundation hospital and clinics in NEw ORleans when I'd take Kathy there
for appointments.  We'd take down the ham radio
antenna from the van, pull into the parking garage, I'd push her in the
wheelchair to her first appointment.

I was on the list of volunteers that came out to play their
nice Steinway in the atrium, so I'd go down to the atrium,
and if nobody was playing it I'd sit down and play, wait for Kathy to call
me on the ham radio portable and go push her
to next appointment, return to the piano.

THen, on the way out, I'd stop by the information desk, have the clerk
there punch my parking ticket, hand attendant the
punched ticket on our way out, no charge .


Regards,
           Richard
