The Pandemic and the Great Outdoors
By Steve Bennett | September 18, 2020
Based on my wanderings around Cambridge and the surrounding areas, it’s clear that people are pretty much doing what they always did—just masked, for the most part, and socially distancing when possible. Here’s a collection of outdoor activities I’ve captured during the past couple of months. Including one that surprised me–an outdoor “chalk talk” in Riverbend Park.
Pandemic boating
Pandemic kettlebell workout
Pandemic quantum physics chalk talk
