Working, doing things around the house, reading, watching a little baseball, listening to music; that about sums it up.

The summer is toast ( pits) in the sunshine state with one of the highest Covid rates around. Tourist coming in don't seem to care, crowd the bars, the beaches, no social distancing then they go into restaurants without mask so We just hang around the house, keep our distance and work at staying safe. But plenty of yard work and little projects around the house.

I have continued to work thru this whole mess so not as much free time as most. I was able to enjoy 2 weeks in Naples FLA and drove home thru the shutdowns.
Continue to find and flip gear helping to fund my next pair of speakers I have been eyeing, Fyne Audio F503s.
The garden pretty much sucks this year and now we are fighting off the Squirrels that decided after 10 years that they now like Tomatoes.
Also fighting off the Spotted Lantern Flies and Cicada Killer Wasps.
I was able to spend a week at our cabin last month and picked 25lbs of Blueberries from a farm.
Watching lots of movies lately too as well as listening to music.

Initially got a lot of listening in, now I am working from home.
Our garden is not as good as past years either for some reason but beginning to get some veggies now. In my area summer fruit hasn't been that good either. Normally I like to pig out on peaches, plums and water melon.
Brian, what did you all do with all those berries?

We joined a Boat Club and we are having a blast on the weekends. Maybe one day we will get our own boat, but for now this is the best way to go for us.
Our house is usually filled with 8-12 kids a day playing, swimming, etc. Our neighborhood has so many kids its not funny. All great to see, it was like that when I was a kid.
My kids completed their summer school for extra credit. My wife is studying her various medical stuff (COPD education now). She’s an RN, RT, etc.
We rented a cabin up in Georgia and it was so beautiful and peaceful on the lake.
The kids are back to school next week (they begged us to let them go back 5 days a week). They are both straight A students. My son loves Math and my daughter loves science. Clearly they were brought here by aliens. My wife and I are both nervous. E-learning was such a disaster in the spring, that we just couldn’t consider it.
And of course, always amazing fun new toys in the store to play with!

We had several trips planned for the late spring and summer time; all cancelled. We are on the same routine we've had since March; however, not complaining. We have what's important: health; happiness; great family and friends. Covid will pass and, hopefully, life will get back to some level of normalcy.
My wife is working from home and i'm retired. Our days go by pretty quickly: workouts (walk, run, HIIT, swim); business news; reading; stuff around the house; clay shooting; maybe some boating; and cocktails at 5 pm or after. I put in a couple of hours of music here or there and, on the weekends, 4 or 5 hours of more music.

Muffins, Pancakes, gave some out. Then we clean and freeze the rest and eat them all year long if we can.
Mike, what part of Florida do you reside. When I'm in Florida (month of March) I spend quite a bit of time @ the Sarasota Gun Club.

Since I got my news, the wife has mentioned going up into the mountains and renting a cabin on a lake or stream for a couple of weeks. Sounds like a plan.
