Weekend Family Travel - Our Trips Outside

Or How to Venture Outside Safely and Healthy

We love each other. But it is hard to be cooped up all of us in the same apartment for 24 hours 7 days a week. It is a lot. We don't have a huge house with a backyard, yet, where we can lose each other. So being within the close proximity for this long with no breaks is a lot.
To reset ourselves, get fresh air, and exercise, we have ventured out to State Parks. It was a great idea that came out of necessity. The nearest park to us has been closed. We walked around the park but that got boring quickly as there is no space to play and there are quite a few people still walking around not following social distancing nor wearing anything around their nose and mouth.

State parks are some of the few places still open. However, they are not fully open. All indoor facilities such as bathrooms are closed. Make sure to plan ahead if you venture out. Playgrounds and basketball and exercise courts are supposed to be close, though some still brave using them.

Going to State parks is our little secret that I am sharing here. So if you do follow the suggestion of visiting one of the State parks, enjoy, but stay at least 10 feet away.
When we are in the park, we try to find an open area where there is no through traffic and plenty of space to run around, kick a ball, fly a kite, and grab a bite in the fresh air. While at the same time keeping to social distancing to make sure we follow the guidelines.
