So did two of his trip mates. He's been "quarantineing" at a hotel, Still testing positive
7:32 am
dan2bit
I don't remember if I shared it here, but the very first Monday of her summer break, miss2bit tested COVID+ with a cough/congestion but no fever. She was so strict with her own quarantine that neither of her parents tested positive. We are very fortunate
7:33 am
Scrabbler
You are lucky, Dan. Miss2bit was not.
7:35 am
dan2bit
it was a hassle, and rotten timing, but certainly more mild than others have been through. she's breezed on to art camp and neighborhood pool

8:42 am
hokie carla
oh, yesterday when I walked winston we saw all kinds of wildlife. normally I just see canada geese, but yesterday I saw a big black snake, then winston saw something and by the time I looked I just saw it going into the marsh. I'm thinking it was a beaver since something has been eating the wood posts on one of the bridge rails. then I saw a big deer.
8:44 am
welki
haven't seen any snakes this year, but had a cute prairie dog visit the other day
8:44 am

hokie carla
there was a canada goose family and the mom (or dad?) would guard the greenway path while the babies would wonder around. I thought several times I would be attacked for walking by but never happened. haven't seen them in a few days so they must've flown on. winston thinks their poop is a delicacy so he's actually very annoying to walk near there.
8:51 am
welki
i had a basset hound that liked to roll in them - annoying cigar factories, those geese
8:52 am
hokie carla
he loves to roll in stuff, but he doesn't that because he eats it as fast as he can. he hoovers it up before I can blink.
8:52 am

One of my boys, Thomas, came home from school one day and told me he had to create a town from the ground up. I asked what he named his town and he seemed embarrassed to say he called it Thomasville. I told him lots of people named places after themselves, for instance Pennsylvania was named for William Penn. His response - "Oh that's good. I thought some stupid people named their kid Pencil."
11:25 pm
westford
that's perfect
11:25 pm
