2 week trip
We have just returned from a 2 week trip to PA. On the trip up we stayed in hotels in VA and PA. I felt comfortable in the hotels as we had little human contact except the receptionist and hotels were nowhere near capacity. Breakfast was provided via go bags. Stops at gas stations were a bit more of a problem as a lot of patrons did not mask. We brought a large picnic size cooler with us filled with food, lunch meat, drinks and ate at rest stops and parks most of the time although we did eat out. Most states have a mandatory mask policy in restaurants although compliance varies. Chain restaurants were better about it than mom and pops. People in rural areas were less likely to mask than urban. On the way back we stopped in Greenville, SC and a suburb of Atlanta, GA. In SC mask compliance was pretty good, especially in the city where people wore them while walking downtown. Also in SC the hotel swimming pool was closed. GA was another story. No distancing or mask use anywhere except a few people here and there who I suspect were travelers.
It is possible to travel safely but plan ahead.
