Tales from the front first day out in 16 days.

Car washes are not essential in Mi. main street all but deserted. Bank drive through opened no lobby service. Drive through at drug store just me very polite gal, when she noticed I used my own pen to sign said I'm using tons of hand sanitizer. Even in lines for drive through I see cars social distancing. Local auction always full only hay straw and firewood is essential no cars just trucks and trailers. One car at chain motel, Walmart parking lot about half full. only one car at Little Caesars. bought two that will be four plus meals for us.

What happens when you are 3 million percent wrong?

I count 16 states a day behind in reporting.

105,000 cases and 400 new deaths looks like a lock by midnight.

Local radio South Central Michigan saying

4 cases in neighboring county. All in state prison system. That can't be good for any one.

My God my state

Latest Mi numbers show about 30 deaths since 10:00

Michigans numbers today are truly frightening

big trackers haven't picked them up. As of 10:00 probably 700 positives about 30 more deaths.

The company from which I'm retired announced double matching grant for

donations to 3 charities re Covid 19. I have been with them since 1974 never before have I seen this. Just made contribution to feeding America which is effectively tripled. Commonly they match charitable donations but this is pretty outstanding.

Trump was right

The world is talking about his handling of the contagion.

Are we going for 18,000 today?
