Last night our cell phones all went off with the loud emergency warning notice that Shelter in place had been ordered. So Shelter in Place it is, but Shelter in Place does not really mean what you think it means.
Overall though, while there's less activity out and about, but by no means are people all just staying indoors.
Jett and I met 5 dogs (and their owners) walking him this morning.
I'm beginning to think that dogs manipulated the Chinese into this outbreak so they could both spend more time with their owners/packs, and get back at the Chinese for eating dogs.
This theory bears investigation.
I worked from home until the later afternoon, then went to the office to get the mail and got a few things done there. Had the entire floor of the building to myself, so I definitely was maintaining social distance.
Thence to the post office as some court-related matters still have a tight deadline and had to go out by certified mail. Clerk had an N95 mask and gloves on and they had hand sanitizer and marks on the floor six feet apart. Since no one else was there it was not a big deal. Apparently a lot of people had been coming in to buy stamps during the day.
The Costco parking lot by the Post Office was rather busy.
Traffic was however nice and light and aside from idiots in the left lane going 10 under the speed limit in spots, all was well. Certainly got home in record time and areas where I would have been waiting awhile to turn due to traffic were no factor.
Overall, activity is down from yesterday but certainly not out.
