If you go someplace and you are uncomfortable......go somewhere else. It’s that simple.

November 18th
 
It is ALSO Mickey Mouse's 92nd birthday (Steamboat Willie, 18 November 1928)...Happy to the big Mouse!

the tickets were not a good idea.

I think the squares are busy, but not like pre covid where you could not get in to the bars or resturants. It was difficult to walk or drive around the squares due to the crowds.

Love the positivity .... the infection rate is 14% in Sumter Country ... in Brookline Mass it is 0.25% ... a factor of over 50. If everyone heads for the squares massless ... would that be considered a "Covid Party" or is it something else?

It’s probably going to be. Hate to state the obvious, but with the soaring rates of infection, why was this decision made?

Would it be because they’re trying to “cull the herd”? Because that will more than likely start happening.

Does that mean happy hours will return???

Yes, remember all the body bag posts when the golf courses stayed open and even more when other activities started back up.

It WILL be, but hoping it isn’t. Hurricane COVID coming to The Villages!

The Mass. numbers look good today but that could be due to the large number of deaths Mass has already gone through. According to Statista.com, Mass has the third highest rate of deaths in the US with 148 deaths per 100,000 population while Florida is 13th with 80 deaths per 100,000. Perhaps there are fewer infections in Mass because there are fewer left to become infected.

Which absolutely does not mean that Florida should race to achieve the numbers in Mass (or NJ, NY, Conn). We should strive to stay healthy and maintain the numbers we currently have.
