Yesterday was the first day that I saw several people wearing masks at the store. It made me self-conscious. I found out my father already wears one whenever he’s out in public. I was surprised when he told me because I don’t generally think of him as being more engaged and socially conscious than us “young” city dwellers. Guess I was wrong about that. I don’t even have a mask. Laredo has already mandated them with up to a $1000 fine for violators. I expect we’ll be seeing those kinds of enforcements all over the country within a few weeks time. I wonder if we can even get some. Or if it would be possible to improvise one.
While I’m at it I might as well post this, too, since Josh got such a kick out of it. I sent this to him a week or so ago, then days later he’s in the hospital. Great timing on my part. Maybe he didn’t follow soon enough the sober and thoughtful advice given in this video.
Just got this from my brother, who at this moment is being hospitalized in Louisiana for pneumonia and possible coronavirus infection. Still awaiting results of his 2nd test. Hasn’t killed his sense of humor. We love you, Josh. Get well.
If you’re not waiting out the apocalypse in a treehouse hotel, you’re not doing it right. Most of these are in exotic spots around the world, but there happens to be one nearby in Eureka Springs! And very affordable, too.
