As we get excited with the arrival of spring, with summer quickly approaching, we still need to keep in mind that we are still in a pandemic. Not to dampen the mood, but even with the COVID-19 vaccinations, we can still possibly be at risk. So many people have gotten comfortable coming out of isolation, which can become easier to do as the weather becomes nicer; watching this happen can influence other people to do the same, and this is where lack of social distancing becomes a risk.
Some are willing to take that risk, but you can still have a good time and enjoy the summer while staying safe social distancing and wearing your masks. How many ways? I have 19 of them for you!
They include:
Backyard barbecue. Fire up the grill and invite family and loved ones over to mix and mingle outside. End the fun night watching the sun go down or with a bonfire.
Beach. There is plenty of sand, water, and walking paths to partake in some summer fun!
Bike rides. Catch some sun and a fresh breeze while riding your bike, whether solo or with friends and family.
Camping or hiking adventure. If you’re into this type of outdoor adventure, there is plenty of space and nature for you to enjoy safely at designated camping and/or hiking destinations.
Dining out. It can still be done, as many restaurants are reopening (if they ever closed) and offering social distanced seating or outdoor dining.
