Just booked a Boise-Boston, New York-Boise trip for October. No risk, fully changeable and refundable, but it was a huge boost to my mood to see that confirmation page. Hopefully at least I can at least see my family, but it would also be super-emotional and celebratory if the back-end part of the trip in New York can work out. $500 for two people using my Alaska Air companion fare.

Also tentatively planning mid-June to the Oregon coast. Lots of cheaper-than-normal lodging options and most places there seem to be opening up at the end of this month. There's a lot of Oregon coast businesses in the poorer towns that aren't going to survive the summer with no visitors, so I've definitely seen a change in tone in the various facebook town pages I've been researching. If there's no quarantine rules and restaurants are open at least for take-out by then, we'll do it and be around fewer people than we are here with girlfriend's job at the grocery store.
