As the months of the pandemic continued on into the summer, it was questionable whether or not we would be able to venture up north for our annual Thompson family vacation in July. We cautiously made plans, knowing they could be altered at any time. With some extra cleaning and sanitizing, done by mom and dad ahead of time, we all headed up north for some much needed time away. Although some activities could not be done as usual, we savored those things we could do and soaked up the sun, sand, water, and family time as much as we could. It was definitely a highlight to our otherwise, very low key summer!
