Cooking during the Pandemic and other things........

We installed an Luxury Vinyl Planking floor in the basement and downstairs bedroom closet with all of our free time.......I think we did a pretty good job!

 During the 'lock down' we entertained ourselves with cooking, puzzles, hiking, walking, tv bingeing, and other things.  Arn tried his hand at somethings we haven't had in a while and we tried some new things.  He even tried making brioche bread which turned out fair.  We did a few puzzles until the weather got nice. I finished some quilts. We also ripped out the basement carpet, had Tim paint the basement rec room and bathroom, and got new carpet on the main 2 floors of the house.

I also make Mere some surgical caps for work and made a couple dozen cloth face masks.

We were on Stay at Home orders beginning mid March due to the Covid 19 virus and were being very good about it.  Only an occasional trip for groceries and hiking and walking were done.  We stayed pretty local and away from crowded areas.  We logged quite a few miles. The golf course opened the end of April for walking only. Arn ended up getting a battery powered walking cart and has been walking since.  I still use a human powered walking cart and ride sometimes.
