Day 5 of “mandatory sheltering” in Berkeley, California…the nation’s first area to get locked down. Neighbors dancing joyfully 6 feet apart on their front lawns to such songs as the Beatles’ “I Want to Hold Your Hand,” “Rescue Me,” etc. You can’t beat down the human spirit…

My bffs and I are all on a texting feed sending each other pics of funny stuff, lots of cocktail pics and hilarious memes to keep us all laughing all day long, thank God! Im just having coffee this morning Im in the fetal position in my bed with my 3 dogs hogging the rest. My 95lb golden/pit mix has zero idea about personal space she just spreads out. Anxiety ridden days and stressful times but we making in here in Arkansas

Indeed! This evening, I came upon another neighborhood doing a socially distanced singalong from their driveways, then all watching the gorgeous sunset. So powerful to witness the light, not just focus on the dark…
Love it! We need more neighborhoods and neighbors like this! 💜
Author
Agreed! And private dance parties in our homes!
Wonderful ! Cheers to you all.

Maybe we should boogie on our block too? : )
Laurie, you still inspire me.
We are on the Coral Princess in South America.
It has been a rough 5 days, we were turned away at several ports and have tried to get home 4 times. Airline tickets scrapped. Could not get off ship.
As of yesterday we are finally going home to the USA. We will take approx 14 days (quarantine) and we will reach Ft Lauderdale, and then do not know what we will do. Everyone is elated they are taking us home. Everyone is telling us we are in the happiest place on earth. Everyone is well and we are still able to have full use of ship. We have now been on 3 weeks, everyone healthy. This is my update. SOOOO good to see your video and see you name.

Wow, crazy place to be during this time. Glad there’s enough food for you on the ship… and even happier they’re letting you come home. Hang in there! xo
I love it!! Uplifting!! Thanks for sending 😊

I got the play list, in case anyone else wants to do a dance party!
I am former Prince St neighbor (16 years at 2712). Now on Blake Street and we are trying to lift spirits as well. Would love to receive your playlist. Thank you, Kathryn Capps

Hi Kathryn, Here’s the link to the playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3lEpW6gruApAEXAWoY1irA?si=UH3U308IT0SVf9uR2CKVNg
The songs are spot on!

I love it! Watching this from here in Anchorage, Alaska, where we too are ‘hunkering down’, and about to be official about it tomorrow night. The dancing is harder to do here with snow, but still possible! 🙂

Maybe a group snowball fight from 6 feet away instead, LOL?
Good to hear from you! xo
