This damn virus has become a political football. If you're a Democrat it seems that you want to keep everything closed down, and if you're a Republican you want to open it back up and let people go back to earning a living. I've been riding up here in Norther California and while the traffic is a little lighter than normal, it doesn't seem a great deal different than before the virus. Many of the State parks are open, but parking is blocked off so that only locals can use the parks. And while filling stations are open, their bathrooms are mostly closed off, so you can buy gas, but not relieve yourself. I've been renovating one of my rentals and Lowe's and Home Depot are packed, so is Walmart. But churches are closed and I can't get a haircut. The local donut shop and Pizza parlor are open for take out business, but the fitness center is closed. It's a strange, strange world these days.
