Drive-by Visits

We are on Day 9 of 21 (or more) of Shelter in Place here in California.  We're pretty much staying in the house unless I walk or Stephen runs.  Daniel has been doing our grocery shopping for us . . . . drops our order off on the back patio. We sure are missing the grandkids.  While video is better than nothing, it's just barely better!  

We've been in our car twice in the last 11 days. The most recent car trip was for a "drive-by visit" to see the grandkids.  It works like this....we drive over, park on the sidewalk in front of the house, stay in the car and they come out to the front yard and talk to us.  Everybody maintains the six feet distance needed to comply with the rules.  Actually, Daniel said he heard the term "distant socializing" and we all think it may make more sense than the other way around.  This is our reality until things settle down and get back to a new normal.


As I mentioned a few posts ago, we were lucky enough to get together for family pictures before the crisis really hit. Here's a look at another great shot from our photography session.  You can see just what we're missing, right?
