Coronavirus Chronicles: Part 3

Our family completed our 6th week of social distancing and our 2nd week of online teaching and learning. Also, this week the governor of NC announced that schools will be closed for the remainder of the 2019-2020 school year. That means that Savannah and I will be doing online learning at home until June 11.

Due to the coronavirus, playgrounds are closed, but parks and trails are open to the public. A few times this week, the girls and I got some fresh air and exercise at the park in our neighborhood.

At the park in our neighborhood, we discovered a path that led to Falls Lake.

The beach was deserted, and the girls had the best time throwing rocks and sticks into the lake.

Walking back to the park from Falls Lake

This afternoon our family explored a new park, where we hiked 1.5 miles and discovered several beautiful streams and waterfalls. 

Savannah has spent many hours reading on our porch.

My principals gave me a Panera Bread gift card for Media Specialist Appreciation Week. The girls and I enjoyed picking up lunch from Panera and eating lunch on our porch.

Hadley napped in Tal's truck:

 While we've been quarantined, our family has played many rounds of Uno.

This week Hadley wanted to camp in our walk-in attic for a couple hours. She brought her pillows and blankets, as well as her lunch box, lantern, and toothbrush. She was prepared!

Tal has been sprucing up our yard. This weekend he spread a truckload of mulch in our front flower bed.
