Grand Canyon? Niagara Falls? Yellowstone Park? Mount Rushmore?
Touching grass may do us all more than a little bit of good. Also, see those places while you can! (Like passports, there might be entry fees added in the future? Or they could even be sold into private hands. Or in the case of Mount Rushmore... never mind, nothing will happen to that, ever, r-r-right?!)
Normally people enjoy visiting places like New York City, Washington DC, Chicago, Seattle, and so on but I would presume there is less chance of running into either ICE or the National Guard out in nature.
Also go on walks in local parks wherever you are. The more that touching grass moves closer to a daily occurrence, possibly the better?
You can only do so much as one person, and it is important to keep your sanity in such trying times. Whatever else you might also do, I hope you enjoy yourself during your vacation!:-)
Mount Rushmore isnt worth it unless you're doing the badlands or it's on your way to Yellowstone
Isn’t worth it even then imo.
