More "Lindbarger" secret meet ups

It turned into a weekly escape.  We would find a new castle or a new hike and meet up and explore.  It was amazing that there were still castles we hadn't explored in our area.  I could hear myself as I would explain to my mom what we did that weekend, "Just went to another castle with the Harshbargers." Germany was still really strict about no one outside of family to be at your home.  Church was still cancelled and we were getting a little sick of being in our house and only with each other. We all craved quality time with our favorite friends.

MY BIG FAT TOE



 I picked up an extra large glass nutella jar by the lid only to realize that someone did not screw it on.  WHOOSH went the very heavy jar.... right onto my toe.  It actually served me right.  I had just answered a "getting to know you" survey asking me what body part could I live without.  I unknowingly said, "my big toe."  That blood blister popped and squirt all over the wall in our office.  It was impossible to clean the stain off.  Those German walls are not ideal if you had to hide any evidence of a murder.  Soon after the nail fell off.

Working with Daddy

Ryan set up a home office in our bedroom.  He would always laugh about how hard his commute was when he would roll out of bed.  The kids loved to help.  It is nice to always have Ryan home.

Marshmellows and Hot dogs

We got a little fire pit from Becky Olson and have fun using it for making meals.  Sam used his flint and steal to start the fire.

Walks and Bike rides

Luckily Spring was unusually warm and we had glorious weather for daily walks and bike rides.  








We drove to Jen and Kev Maynes several times to help them 
Holly Mae.  Luke said that he was in "heaven."

They roped off the playground so not to
spread any Covid.
