We don't even need to leave our homes any more. When you do leave the house for take out, it is waiting in a box for you so you don't have to talk to anyone.
The latest activity was the annual Easter Egg Hunt.
With "social distancing," it obviously had to be cancelled. There just wasn't another option.
Or maybe there was?
The first responders in town joined together to bring the Easter Bunny to everyone, just like Santa but better. When Santa visits he splits his trips on different days based on which fire company he is with, and that is the short answer. With the Bunny the township organized it with first responders. They set up a schedule and a route tracker so we could figure out when the Bunny would be in our part of town.
Our time slot was between 2 and 4 pm. Around 3:30 I heard happy sirens. Ashley laughed at me saying they were "happy sirens," but came out with me anyway.
The siren was different from when Santa makes his voyage. This time I didn't hear it until it was a block away. With Santa we seem to hear the sirens for hours before the big guy makes it to our street.
Happy Easter!
Addendum: On Easter we saw the bunny again. He was delivering treats to some houses. Turns out, it was the Hullfish-Venner families continuing the tradition they started in 1929.
