Abstract

here is snow in the winter, I am not able to golf as much as I might like. So I have had to stay home a lot during the pandemic. Although I have been able to enjoy some certain activities such as reading, writing, having ZOOM meetings, and watching television, I especially like to get outdoors.<blockquote id="d66b">One of my favorite pastimes these days is going to the grocery store or a store like Costco. Things are a lot different than they were before the pandemic hit. Now you should get a cart that has been sanitized or have disinfectant wipes readily available to clean the cart yourself. You will need to wear a mask (at least for now until restrictions are lifted). You might even have your temperature taken as you enter the store. There is social distancing inside the store.</blockquote><figure id="1b01"><img src="https://cdn-images-1.readmedium.com/v2/resize:fit:800/1*OpvhgLR_Nke6dagrOfgSAw.jpeg">

It has been one of the few things we could do

Golfing may be possible too

My favorite thing to do during the COVID pandemic and usually any time of the year is to play golf. Getting out in the fresh air and hitting that small white ball with friends provides an enjoyable activity and diversion. It has been a safe activity during the pandemic because they put in safety measures. They clean the golf carts and all equipment at the golf courses regularly. They instituted a practice of having only one rider per golf cart unless the players lived in the same household.

Since I live in Utah where there is snow in the winter, I am not able to golf as much as I might like. So I have had to stay home a lot during the pandemic. Although I have been able to enjoy some certain activities such as reading, writing, having ZOOM meetings, and watching television, I especially like to get outdoors.

You can spend a lot of time in a grocery store and can find many interesting things to eat there. The pandemic has given people generally more time so perhaps many are spending more time in grocery stores than they normally would.

With most restaurants closed for a time or having only take out and entertainment outlets shut down during the pandemic, going to the grocery store was the only chance for some people to get out of the house.

Of course, people can always go outside to sit in the fresh air or to take a walk during the pandemic. Getting outdoors has been advised.

Hopefully, the pandemic will end soon as most people get vaccinated. Normal activities may resume so that going to the grocery store will not need to be the main activity for people.
