If you returned in the afternoon ,then you would have joined the marathon session experienced by many. We joined the line in front of the Charter School at my wife's appt time of 3:30 . We finally turned the corner to go down the west side of the school, moving up five to 8 cars at a time ,hoping to see the vaccination tents in the rear.
Not so, the line formed all around the school sports complex then down to the high school. We, along with the others had no idea how long the actual line was and where they were doing the vaccinations.
Four and half hours later we reached the high school parking lot and the vaccination site. They had cancelled in the am due to the adverse conditions caused by the rain. Then they had to get permission to set up at the high school. Had it rained that location would have been closed. It was a long wait and everyone was surprisingly patient and respectful of the vaccination staff who had been on the feet long over 12 hours by that time. We left the site after a five hour marathon and there were at least another hour of recipients lined up behind us. Hopefully for her second shot next month ,things will be back to normal.
