The lobby was full of young folks in swimming suits going to a pool party in the back.
No masks and very little clothes.
The lobby was packed.
I always wear a mask and have my shots so I was protected.
There was a big party in the back, outside but still.
The people looked to be in their 20's or so.
All I could see was the virus jumping around.
I hope they had their shots.
How many will get sick from this.
Jesus H.Christ we will never get rid of this virus will we.

spreading the good word and more. My friend group had to stop hanging out with a person who was enjoying the cheap travel prices in 2020 while working remotely from anywhere.

When our young people and Children start dying they will start to see it.
They are the sacrificial lambs.

I was named after an Aunt who died at 6 months old from the Spanish flu in 1920.
Does history have to repeat itself.
I heard about Spanish flu from my Grandmother.
These foolish young adults just taking chances for a weekend of fun.
Just sad.

when did this start?
I hear you though, Texaswitchy - you'd hope better decisions would be made during a pandemic

(2,962 posts)8. I think this was like a convention..
Three days.
There was a sign up in the lobby hanging from the ceiling.
Greed is right.

If they can even get one.
Those kids were just packed in the lobby.
More in the back.
It took me breathe away.

All I could see was the virus jumping around.
I really am going to need a lot of counseling once this nightmare is over.

birthday party today. It was filled with dozens of maskless kids bouncing around and I pictured covid virus particles bouncing all around inside.
