2020
 
 
 
Due to the world-wide coronavirus pandemic and COVID-19, 2020 was different that anything we had ever experienced. In March, the entire world went into "lockdown". We didn't see the kids or grandkids for months. Only "essential" businesses were allowed to open - such at doctors offices, hospitals, government buildings, pharmacies, building supply stores, food processing plants, grocery stores, fast food restaurants, postal services and other businesses that provided things necessary for human survival. Schools were even closed for the rest of the year - eventually opting for on-line classes for kids. Some churches completely closed while others refused to shut their doors. Our church provided streaming services on line while others opted to have services outdoors with church members remaining in their cars.
 
For the first time in our lives we heard about social-distancing and stores that were open, like Walmart, only allowed a limited number of cuntomers into the store at one time and customers were told to only go down isles in a certain direction. Facial masks were mandated but there were many who refused to wear them.
 
We quickly learned that the elderly and those with underlying medical conditions were more likely to die from the illness. By November, there were 57 million cases worldwide with 1.3 million deaths while in the US there were 12 million cases and about 260,000 deaths. The countries with the largest number of cases were as follows: (1) United States, (2) Brazil, (3) India, (4) Mexico, (5) United Kingdom, (6) Italy, (7) France, (8) Iran, (9) Spain and (10) Russia.
 
We were not able to have our children or grandchildren come into our home, but by April they had come to visit us outside - at a large distance in the yard. It wasn't until mid summer that we finally opened our doors for the kids and grandkids - with social distancing and masks.
 
Government officals and the news media encouraged families not to get together for Thanksgiving or Christmas due to the possibilities of spreading the disease. Carolyn & I, however, decided that there was no "quality of life" without being able to have family over so we opted to host our annual Thankgiving and Christmas celebrations
 
 
 
All of that to say that we did do our annual family photos after lunch on Thanksgiving Day
 
No photos from 2020 would be complete withour our masks
