Scenes from Quarantine ~Part 8


In the three months since I posted my last 'Scenes from Covid' series, much has transpired, even while we continue to be in the mists of a global pandemic and spend the majority of time at home. We've had a few exceptions and when doing our same ole grind, we have tried to make the best of it through a variety of ways. Here's what the pandemic Fall looked like. 

Three celebrations. 

1: Anjahni's birthday. What better way to SIP than with my favorite black forest cake! 

2: The not trick or treating Halloween. 

3: Save-the-Turkey Day at home (where we did Thanksgiving 100% vegetarian, without having to schelp our own meal stuff to other people's houses.)

We took lots of walks up in the hills, with both humans and goats. We got to safe distance with school friends as well. We found a new trail along the Bay and one in the woods in Pinole Valley and also hiked at another Bay Trail

We visited the Grand Canyon State (very safely, I might add)

We took a train ride.

Mom had to make an emergency trip to Georgia with sister/tia Kim because brother/uncle Bobby was very ill.

We went bike riding w/ our new bicycle, a generous gift from our cousins.

The girls continue to do school from home and Gaia Girls safely in person.

Anjahni and Don continue to work from home.

Kai continues to try to play with Samson. Samson continues to growl at him.

We all laugh and get on each others nerves but most importantly;

We are grateful for all we have because we know many are not as fortunate during these times and we are mindful of the blessings we have.
