Summer 2019: Sleeping Bear Dunes & Vermont

Family Stories /

When I first put this book together, in 2019, it seemed like a good way to chronicle a fun summer with family. That Fall, rumors of a strange new disease began to emerge in the news. Little did we realize that a life changing pandemic, COVID-19, would make it impossible for us to have a family reunion for another two years! I returned to this book after the 2021 reunion and revamped it. Those images from 2 years earlier now seemed so precious. We luckily all survived. Our summer reunions have now taken on new meaning, one that none of us will soon forget.
