8 weeks into self quarantine upstate and I just had to get out and go visit my mother in Pa. for Mother’s Day. Armed with a mask and a spray bottle of sanitizer, I was ready for a week of family from a social distance.
The best part of my days were the walks I took with both my sisters who live in area. We all love nature and identifing plants. Spring is in full bloom there so it was bursting with plants and flowers I wasn’t familiar with.
