From Pera Beth’s memoirs, A Full Life
'Our...trip to Yellowstone was in May of 2014 when Sue and Terry invited us to accompany them in their 32-foot-long motorhome....When they arrived to pick us up, Bill and I were surprised to see that Sue had rented a three-wheel mobility scooter to make it easier for me to maneuver around the sights in Yellowstone. ...In some of the more popular areas there are boardwalks, which allowed me to easily navigate in my scooter while Bill walked along beside me.'
Since she enjoyed the freedom the scooter gave her, Doug and Sue gave Pera Beth her own scooter for Christmas in 2014. She began to use the scooter to take her 'daily' walks around Washington Park, whenever the weather cooperated.
This video was taken by her granddaughter Holly testing out the new 'skateboard park' in the children's playground.
And, of course, there must be happy hour after a hard 'walk' around the park.

Looking through Pera Beth's computer, I found her book in pdf format. I have included it here, in case you would like to download or read any part of her book.
