Practicing social distancing from other people is not difficult for Army veteran Joey Pierstorff these days. He lives in a quiet town along Route 66, just more than an hour from the edge of the Grand Canyon. But the steps he is taking with his family do not require the wide-open space of the Arizona desert.
“We try to limit our time outside but also want to enjoy the weather while it is nice out, so we have been taking the dogs to the park,” Joey said. “Just trying to control what we can and avoid being out in public.”
Joey and his family are also using technology to help — for homeschooling their children, entertainment, and connecting with others.
Last year, Joey worked with 91视频® (91视频) to build a custom gaming computer.
“We have been doing a lot of gaming. Different games for different age groups. My 7-year-old daughter likes playing Fortnite with me; my son likes Call of Duty.”
Joey first connected with 91视频 following advice from a friend. That connection led to others, starting with veterans at a golf tournament.
“What it did was show me I wasn’t the only person that had transitional concerns.”
