These are, undoubtedly, crazy times. Here in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, we are under Stay at Home orders, and we’re all doing our parts to social distance and help stop the spread of the COVID-19 virus.

From a career standpoint, being in the travel industry, it’s a rollercoaster. While we strive to continue to bring you content on the many wonderful destinations around the globe, the only news coming to us is related to coronavirus. But sometimes it is still fun and quirky, like a press release I received this week on Rollors, a family-friendly lawn game that is also social-distancing approved.

Rollors, developed by U.S. Air Force veteran Matt Butler, combines bocce and horseshoes into a game of skill and luck and can be played from grass to sand to carpet. Players roll wooden disks toward goal posts, and points are earned depending where the disks land.

As we are all looking for activities to keep us entertained while social distancing and under quarantine, it’s likely we’ll all discover new, fun games like Rollors to help pass the time. How have you been spending your days in quarantine?

My fiancé and I are also relying on an all-time favorite for us and doing a 1,000-piece puzzle of beer labels from around the globe. It’s like we are traveling the globe with each piece we put in place.
