[speedo8357]

Pickleball
Chatting with neighbors when dog walking — just plain socializing
Going to Sunday Mass (can’t believe I said that — but streaming isn’t the same).

Has been particularly frustrating for me. I moved here on March 30th! Yes — I know — perfect timing. But at least despite various close downs, everything went off without a hitch.

I miss turning on the news in order to find out the weather forecast.
I miss waking up each morning and smiling at the sunshine, without any worry about how many will die next.
I miss the innocence of not knowing about this virus.

[John_W]

Alright, I posted right away and I want to add one or swap one out.

Here's what I had:

1) Eating out in a restaurant
2) MVP Gym at Brownwood
3) Listening to music at the squares (Hooligans)

It's hard to say what I would leave out, but I want to add Sports! Hockey season was just getting good, and the Stanley Cup Playoffs would be happening now, and Tampa Bay had a good team. The Baseball Season would be underway, we would have Rays home games on TV and the NFL Draft is next Thursday. It's still going on, but it would of been in the new Raiders Stadium in Vegas with thousands of fans, always a big spectacle.

We've got the best scorer in the league, Nikita Kucherov, more people should take advantage of having a great team so close to home.

#1-POOLS
People are not that close at the pools and germs should die in the water. The pool is much needed exercise with everything else canceled.

You are right! RJV PLAN: Pools kill every virus you have on your body with the chlorine content. The other day I heard millions of virus screaming as they died in the pool. Not really, but there is nothing better for residents to stay clean of virus than pool waters. If those in charge would give us back that protection and exercise mode but keep attendance as in their restaurants at 50% etc and people emptied out every two hours to let others in, would be fair. Come on, let's be smart about fighting this virus and not cause residents to bunch up in yards with nothing to do. Let them in the pools!
