To effectively celebrate one full year in quarantine, my girlfriend and I received our first COVID-19 vaccination on the way home from an 18 (or so)-hour trip to Bellingham. After eating some tasty deli sandwiches from the Skagit Valley Food Co-Op in her car, we made our way to Mt. Vernon Haggen and answered questions about allergies at the lip of the pharmacy desk. The pharmacist administering the vaccine told us they’ve given somewhere in the neighborhood of 2,100 shots in the past handful of weeks.
