We Said Go Travel Summer News DC (During #COVID19) June 2020

 

June News 2020 with We Said Go Travel:

Welcome to Summer COVID-19. I have been in Los Angeles since March 9, 2020. That is 112 days. It is the longest I have been in one place that I can remember.

I never imagined there would be a summer with no planned trips, no summer camp and masks required.

What have I been doing? During my walks around the block and now on Santa Monica beach, I have been practicing taking photos with my new phone, #LGV60ThinQ.

I have been working to amplify voices on my site and was honored to publish remarks from my Rabbi on Juneteenth.
