#itasca again yeah thats always good

Well, the vacation was a bust: despite negative covid tests before departure, we were informed a whole 12 hours after our arrival that a family member of J’s that he had contact with one day prior tested positive for covid. So we packed up and headed back home to minimize risk since we weren’t going to be alone. Both of us were thoroughly bummed. We spent the time off at home. Both of us feel fine (aside from the allergies and me dealing with some mild depression med side effects) and tested negative again today.

I feel robbed, but… I did get more work done on the eagles. Even though I turned into a potato for two whole days. And I made some surprising progress on the yard from hell/garden as well, before transforming back into a potato.

Things could be worse, but… disappointed. Oh well.
