We had a lovely 6 weeks in Chicagoland , in October, with a wedding in Colorado in between. This is in spite of a visit from Covid and sudden, freezing cold.
The wedding was great fun, a nephew's wedding. It is the first time I am attending a wedding in the US. All the festivities were outdoors. The wedding itself was unique, because, at the appointed time, just as the bridegroom was walking in, there was a downpour and a hail storm at that! Luckily a tent had been set up for the food. So everyone took shelter in the tent and the bar tenders kindly handed out cocktails early. So, by the time that was over and the wedding could take place--now in bright sunshine--most guests were quite happy and not too cold.
But post the wedding, quite a few of the extended family tested positive for Covid, though everyone had it quite mild.
I had my birthday in Chicagoland with my son and family.
It was a tug to leave them and come back home. Hopefully they can visit this year.
