    I was marvelling at beach pictures in Florida, shaking my head at the crowds. Then I walked my dog to the skateboard park 5 minutes from my house. It was jammed with indestructibles (youngsters). The hoops court next door as well. This thing is not going away any time soon.

    I’ve been teleworking all this week, but last night got word that one, possibly 2 people in the building where I usually work got confirmed positive test results. It’s a rural town of less than 12,000 people. The building is closed until further notice.

    Only 14 confirmed cases in South Dakota so far, 4 in my county.

    Stay safe out there my peeps.

    Brewing industry update: beer and alcoholic beverages are considered essentials. Keep supporting your local restaurants and breweries for as long as you can! Take out orders are a great stand in until you need to eat the food in your fridge.

    Hey all, guess I've been checked out for a bit. All good for the most part at our boondock enclave just up the road from @Brew_Tri and his life-saving operation. Spring break got effectively doubled for me, then we start back all online this coming Monday. Wife is furloughed from both dental and small gym jobs as of middle of this week. We have been at each other's throats a fair amount already.

    Sitting around catching up on the Netflix queue, well stocked from what might've been @GasBomb 's last harvest. Trying to make the beer/booze last as I adapt to a lower overall activity level. Got the TRX set up in the garage finally, now that we need it, and actually rode the trainer a little. Lucky to have had the recent visit from @Tad_M and ride with @oldmanchad before things got crazy!

    If you haven't seen it, this site from Johns Hopkins is keeping a great real-time tally of cases, casualties & recoveries. Making this type of data visualization is a big part of what I'm in school for, so I'm finding it extra interesting.

    This is quite prevalent around town as well which is pretty sad. Our cases are low by comparison and I think its giving a false sense of security. My wife shut down her business for the time being. She said that part of town the other day was so busy it was like a weekend event was going on.

    I will say that I am quite impressed by the NY Governor and the others that are taking the strong proactive approach. In a situation like this you can never be right. I personally think they are acting in peoples best interests even though they may not realize it.

    On the way to town to pick up drive through grocery order. Apparently I have salsa and olive anxiety.

    Here’s a great diversion from fretting about 6 more cases in our county.

    In Seattle/King County, we were at 934 cases/74 deaths yesterday and numbers continue to rise. City/county has shut down parks but it is our first sunny spring weekend so tons of people are ignoring the guidance. It’s insane.

    I am coping by shopping. Purchased a refurbished Wahoo KICKR yesterday on sale. Hope it gets delivered as planned. Meanwhile, finding lots of interesting workouts on IG. Going to try this dance workout at noon pacific.

    I live alone which I am starting to believe might be easier than those staying home with family members. ;)

    @Jennifer Post I'm convinced I missed the boat by not becoming a divorce attorney. Business will be booming once these quarantines are lifted.

    (I may be projecting a little bit.)

    I can only imagine the stress of families working from home, trying to home school kids, living with financial stress, and trying to maintain a happy home life. So tough. I was about ready to divorce myself last night because I am so tired of myself.

    Sure, we may see a hike in divorces, but what about all the soon to be COVID-Boomer babies! I am pretty sure not all spouses/couples are applying social distancing to their genitals.

    I’ve been with my wife for 12 years, and we have 3 kids. I know nothing of what you write.

    It was more of a question - I personally have been advised numerous times that social distancing applies by the statement, "not now, we have to social distance because I have a COVID headache".

    If you have not been following the Tour de Quarantine coverage, please make your self-isolation much, much better and do so. If there is another quarantine, hopefully VeloGames will get on board with a fantasy league.

    Go Team Fred.

    Good to see that most Roosters are making out ok.

    I've been working from home since March 13th and it's been fine. I'm growing a COVID-19-day beard, so that's something. I have a decent office set-up in my bedroom. Definitely happy to be working for a company that is so accommodating and taking the situation seriously. We've been told that the office is closed for at least 8 weeks. Hopefully spring arrives up here before then!

    Still no cases in my rural MN county. The state just went into shelter in place, but farmers will still be able to do our thing this spring. We are basically socially distanced no matter what we do out here anyways, and already have basically all of our supplies to plant this years crop. But everyone seems to be pretty smart about it except the old folks that still go to the grocery or hardware store for 1 or 2 items just because they are bored. We are also very blessed being less than an hour from the Mayo Clinic. And I can still ride all the gravel I want. So life really isn’t a whole lot different for me, feeling bad for everyone crammed into a big city. Stay safe and healthy everyone

    In case anybody missed what happened this week on the team FB group, here's a recap.
    @Tad_M throwing down training and nutrition tips for the apocalypse with buddy Paul.
