Day 87 in 2020 (isolation day 12)

Spring rain, spring peepers, spring flowers...these are a few of our favorite things these days.

We won't know for a few weeks if, or how well, this isolation has worked to flatten the curve and save lives, but we are keeping our hopes up, and our bodies at home. Our minds and hearts, however, are all over the place. Calvin spent over four hours on a video chat with homeschooling friends this afternoon. Gimli and I did venture out, but only to a nearby metro park with ten foot wide paved trails where social distancing was easily achieved. That's where we found our spring peepers, and Gimli found lots of squirrels. And we enjoyed our weekly Friday beer date with family through computers.
