Snowshoeing is a great winter activity to get kid out of the house. (Skip Dickstein/Times Union)SKIP DICKSTEIN
Time is a crazy construct in these pandemic days. It both flies and crawls, and just when you think you’ve conquered the calendar and settled into a routine, you realize it’s mid-winter school recess. The kids are off for a whole week and you have nothing planned.
But then what is there to do? So many go-to sites, like museums and movie theaters are still closed. Certain available scenarios still feel wildly unsafe. The closest most of us can get to a warm-weather respite is a light therapy lamp, an ocean waves sound machine and a margarita.
