Covid 19 has curtailed most everyone for over a year….but, now thanks to the vaccines, life begins to move back toward “normal”   My wife, Jeannine, and I have resumed “outside” activities with the caution of masks and outdoor activities.  We love being able to return to Yosemite National Park (as pictured) to enjoy huge waterfalls, park beauty, hikes through fantastic Redwood trees, etc.  Also, Bocce leagues have resumed and fishing in the San Francisco Bay are currently safe, enjoyable outdoor activities  And with more than 1,000 wineries within a 50 mile radius safely seating people outdoors some 15 feet apart, we have resumed those enjoyable visits.  Back to near normal is great!  We encourage everyone to get their vaccines as soon as possible.  Fond memories of my IWU days.
