Covid - MN deaths are still down under 10 a day from a high of 30-40 a day. Other states are not doing as well. Cases and hospital stays are both going up, deaths and ICU are going down.

We spent the weekend with one daughter and family on the shore of Lake Superior last weekend. That county has had two covid cases so far. One local person and one tourist. Most eating places are take out/to go. Even the big $$ places that we used to go for the atmosphere give you your food to go. It's just not the same.

Some places allow you to sit outside, but your food is now served fast food style and you are to bus / clean your own tables.

Most people, 75%+, were wearing masks when close to others in town. In the park and on hikes very few masks.

On the long haul driver call today, the office was walking the line between those that don't want to wear a mask and customers that say you must. There may just be some loads you don't take ...

Other than that the call was all over the board.

One of the final calls was someone who had contracted on, but hadn't taken a run yet. Their questions made it sound like they had no idea what the term 'independent contractor' meant.

BB had two of her appointments today, still has one on Thursday and Monday.
