During the Pandemic we are taking turns with Kyle and Alena's family to go to the Taylor's lake house for one week at a time. Kevin and I can both work remotely, and the kids can do school from their devices so it gives us a great change of scenery and some great options for fresh air. We feel so blessed to have this option during this time when many people are struggling so much. We are not unaware of how fortunate we are and of how many people are working hard at this time or are in very bad situations.
I wanted to record a phrase from Andrew's dinner prayer from our last visit to the lake house. On April 24, 2020 he expressed his gratitude "We thank Thee for how lucky we are to have a lake house so we can escape our house without going camping."
Lakes, campgrounds, and four wheeler trails are being overrun by people anxious to be outdoors during this time. State parks have been reopened to visitors after being closed due to COVID-19 but they are having to close their entrances midday because so many people are trying to recreate at this time.
Traffic out to the lake house has increased so much for this early in the season. There is a trailhead near a Pony Express marker on the final road to the lake house that we rarely seen one lost looking car on. This last trip home from the lake there was a dozen or so trucks with trailers, SUVs and other vehicles all crammed into the parking lot at that little marker.
