We don't have that problem here. No masks required or even currently recommended. In fact our restrictions are easing. From tomorrow bars can open, with restrictions. of course being a small island nation with only one level of government helped tremendously.

Theoretically people coming from out of state are still expected to self-quarantine for 14-days. I say theoretically because I see cars with out-of-state plates all over the place. Hotels are still closed, and short term rentals are banned. Yet Ocean City MD has lifted all of those restrictions. so it seems untenable to continue those restrictions for much longer. Restaurants dining rooms are still closed. No word on when those restrictions might be lifted.

I don't have a mask. If I did, it would be marigold.

But Bonds compares to Lance in the sense that both were the greatest in their sport and still would have been even without the drugs.

If you want the 2000 pc jigsaw puzzle (52" x 24"), it is yours. Google "ravensburger neuschwanstein castle 2000" to see what the picture is. PM me if you want it.

This eve whilst cycling I saw about 20 Canadian geese grazing in a field. I told them to give my regards to the homeland.

On the espresso front, it appears that my cheapo grinder can't grind fine enough to do the job. New grinder should be here today. My wife, a non-coffee drinker, is starting to look askance at me. Is that a bad thing?
Cycling content: Going for a ride shortly if it ever clears up.
Lawn(s) content: I HAD to mow two days ago after several days of rain. I set the mower as high as it would go and with the grass still a little damp and lush, it came out embarrassing. I had to mow again yesterday to barely make things look presentable. Rain, off and on, till next week.

Exactly. That’s why I had to do an emergency cut two days ago between showers and a repair cut yesterday. Probably have to mow again tomorrow or Friday.
