Just came back from Lowe's in Red City, Arizona ... [View all]

Another name I have for it is 'Provo South' ... I have 3 LDS churches within a mile of my house. You get the idea.

Anyways, BIG change from the last time I was out at Safeway earlier in the week, about a block south of Lowe's. That time, there was almost nobody in masks. Today ... totally different story. Easily more people than not wearing them.

People are getting the memo about the exploding case count in this state, and many are taking it somewhat seriously it would appear.
