Scenes from Quarantine-Part 9


 

It is now 2021. 2020 flew by despite the multilayers of chaos in the world. 

We are now going into year two of the Covid-19 pandemic. 

We continue to work, school and overall stay at home.

We try to hike, bike and stay sane as much as possible.

We celebrated Christmas, Hanukkah and the New Year in a very quiet manner.

We chose to make one amazing trip, which fed the heart, mind & soul.

Mom got vaccinated. Mom is trying to stay as up to date on alternative ways to stay healthy (vs mainstream means which are not always helpful) for the rest of the family.

Amara and Don have continued their winter tradition to look for deer antler. with much success. Amara has  even found some skulls as has Anjahni

Our Girl Scout troop did a beach/park cleanup as part of that said community project.

The girls have gone bicylce riding, including with some friends, which proved to be very good rx for their mental and physical health. 

We are reading lots of books, cooking and baking.

We have started to sell Girl Scout Cookies pandemic safe style.

Mom is antsy about traveling and has already started planting seeds about post pandemic adventures to far away places.

We continue to try to get along, not get on each others nerves too much and to try to stay as sane as we can in these very strange, very unbalanced times.
