@sueinmn In our little community, there have been no cases reported of this COVID-19. However, you and I both know, as does everybody here in town, that people travel into town or people from town go elsewhere and then come back home. We cannot be assured that anyone that we come in contact with is taking the same precautions. Just yesterday I stopped at the farmers market for five minutes. I was introduced to this gal's mother, who is a registered nurse, who proceeded to stick her hand out to shake hands with me! She had no mask on, despite government orders. And simple basic precautions. And the same for most of the people there at that Open Air Market. I was not only disappointed I was appalled. So, I won't be going back there. She made the comment "it's no problem because there have been no cases reported here". My response being, "that doesn't mean it's not here."

I understand the balance that must be taken with young people and their mental health plus physical safety. It is very difficult to express the potential effects of close interactions, when you see in the entertainment outlets the people have serious issues and the next episode they are back again like nothing happened. Possible reality is set aside. It's a challenge for everyone.

Sometimes I wonder why I don’t go to stores. This answers it for me @gingerw . I do go out to the park everyday, but people are pretty good there.
@feisty76. Did you say that your daughter and family live in Boulder? So far, Boulder and Boulder County are doing well with low numbers

Welcome to my world, Sue........people were furious when our small city put a mask order in place two days ago and now with the state mandate, it will be interesting to see if there will be increased revolt or a bit more compliance. This is why I basically have to stay home except for a very few safe places to shop. I’m glad it’s an unusual occurrence for you. Stay safe and well❤️
