In early July we went to the resort in northern Minnesota where my wife has gone since she was young. Things were different this year, of course. Our stay was a day less as the staff needed more time to clean and disinfect. The lodge was closed for hanging out in. The swimming pool had a 20 person occupancy limit. Boat paddles, oars and life jackets were supposed to be dipped in the pool after use so the chlorine would kill of germs, bacteria and viruses. A lot of activities were changed or done away with. Bingo night happned, albeit on the lawn spread out more than usual. The mini golf contest was coordinated so everyone started ten minutes after the previous person. There were no staff versus guest games. Bingo night happned, albeit on the lawn spread out more than usual.

Still, it was a good time. We got to relax by the pool and swim in the lake. The kids got to fish with grandpa, and I got to read in my hammock. They played tennis and built sand castles for the contest (though the sand castles were spread out between the beach and the volleyball courts). They swam a lot (it was a nice, hot week). We relaxed, had fun, and had time together. Which though it was different from previous years, still made for a successful vacation.
