7. see text of order here. Outdoor activities with immediate household members are ok

Sat Apr 18, 2020, 12:55 PM

Apr 2020

nothing about motor boats.

Ok to leave home to secure "products necessary for the safety, sanitation, and basic
operation of their residences"

For instance, I just called my local hardware store, which is open, and
I'm going over to pick up some lawn and leaf bags, certainly showing a
pretty broad interpretation of "necessary" products.

I'm sure if I wanted paint they'd sell it to me.

I'll be doing a garden this year, have just ordered seeds so I don't have
to pick up seedlings at a garden center - something I've been meaning
to do for years anyway.

cops aren't checking on what anybody is out and about doing - they
have better things to do.

Don't believe the bullshit.
