The Koponen families are sheltering in place at their various locations in Alaska and New England in defense of the COVID-19 virus. Joan will be 89 this month, still at the homestead house, so extra precautions need to be taken for prevention. It is possible to go out for walks in local areas, maintaining physical distancing. Internet for the Fairbanks family units are limited, but we’re limping along with as good a humour as can be maintained. Hope all is well with you all.

VERY interesting times.
