My mom and I went out for a ride to just see the outside world. We drove to Laguna Beach, looking at all of the other cars that apparently had the same idea. The beaches were empty, lined with a plastic orange mesh fence and social distancing instructions “Stay 6 ft apart”. Sometimes it was eerie to see nobody else outside. The beach is a place my family likes to go to have fun, but like many of our other pastimes, we can’t do them anymore. We like to joke that eating is the only activity we can do during quarantine.
