So it will be tourist season in a couple weeks, would be getting started right about now but we're only in phase 1 of reopening so NPs are still closed or entrances in MT are still closed. It seems like 30 - 60% of the folks I see during my outings are wearing masks, some wearing gloves, but they are doing their best to keep their distance. Most are respectful of distancing. There are taped markers on the floors in stores, haven't seen one-way aisles yet but I go to a rather small city to go to the store.
But I saw a hair dresser's place open last week. The governor says he'll see what the scene is before deciding around 6/1 as to whether other businesses can open and other restrictions might be eased. He's being cautious while trying to keep the peace with the red crowd, and doing quite well, we're second in the country for keeping a low affect in cases and deaths. There's a 14 day quarantine order for anyone entering the state, with some exceptions but few of those.
The issue will be when the tourists show up starting next month. Then we will start all over again.
I am glad I have recently exited the workforce, I am working a vegetable garden in the yard this summer and enjoy the things I have.
