No holiday for me this year due to poor health.... Might take some day trips to the doctors and hositpal ... I have to laugh I crack otherwise...

It is a beautiful part of the country. I would advice going out of holiday season if you don't have kids at school, it can be a real nighmare to get around during the holiday season.

The sun stayed out, but the wind was pretty cold Was great to see my dad, he was looking really well.

Nice, hope the weather stays like this for you it's great place to be in the sun

There's not much discussion about passports here, some. But I wouldn't mind if people with vaccine could go to a restaurant or a theatre without me. I can wait. I wouldn't mind if the teenagers and young adults got the vaccine before me either. It's easier for me to stay at home a little longer. But I'm sure I will take the vaccine!
How would the world have been without vaccines? My father had polio as I child. He was a college teacher, and could not lift his right arm. He got married and my oldest brother was born in 1951, then in 1953 his wife died. It was the last polio epidemic in the western world. He and my two year old brother where alone in a town far from his home village and his family. Not long after that, the vaccine came.
Just as the old say "don't forget about the war", there are stories about diseases and vaccines that also should be told.
