Chuck Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 Here in Southern AZ, we are dealing with winds and the accompanying allergies. What used to be just seasonal sniffles, sneezes and itchy eyes becomes a concern over this virus. We are all hyper vigilant at this time, which is a good thing.

Twotoes Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 I normally go to AZ for the winter. This year I went to FL for a change. FL is having a worse time than AZ with the virus. I left FL last week after two weeks of self quarantine, and am now hunkering down in a small town camp ground in GA. GA is having a very bad year with pollen. A wet, warm winter followed by an early spring and tree pollen is everywhere. My allergies are going crazy, but I am not near any big town nor lots of people.

geodog Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 We are hunkered down in S&B in West Trxas. I am trying to stay sane doing un-needed and expensive projects,ie installing new electric outlets in the garage. All of our Spring trips have been cancelled and I am now starting to cancel Summer Trips. With the cancellation of ESCAPADE the trip to Wyoming will be cancelled. Everyone stay safe and try to remain sane. ShortyO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenandjon Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 My daughter has been sick for 3 over weeks but that started before the virus hit. She self quarantined before any of this started. They finally did test her for Covid. Should have results today. Pretty confident its not Covid because of the time line. Out here in eastern Nebraska it depends on where you are. In the country we are pretty good. Aside from not being able to go to the cafe for lunch and the bar for a few drinks in the evening its a minor inconvenience. The city folks around here have it worse although It is going around the rural communities. One woman near here passed away a couple days ago. Every fall we stock up extra supplies for winter because we are just one good blizzard away from not seeing town for a few days or a week. With the mild weather we have not needed the extra supplies until now. I haven't even gotten into my home canned food yet. Until today, because I'm bored. I'm going to get out the canned chicken and stuff to make a big ole pot of soup. Chad, you have my condolences. I have friends that work in hospitals and are first responders. You people are on the front lines. You cant stay home its your job to keep the rest us safe. Right now its our job to make yours easier and stay home.

Twotoes Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 My son lives in eastern NE, in Omaha. He is home sick and can't even get out of bed. He works as an installer of fiber optic cable in homes. His wife, who works in a hospital is also home, with two kids out of school. The whole family is on quarantine.

We are north and a little west of there about 2 hours. Near the reservation. Jen is a homemaker and it turns out a pretty good home school teacher especially for being forced into it. We farm and all the employees live real close. We try to keep a tight circle.

We are used to the southeast yellow pine tree pollen season... or what's common,y called the itchy watery eye season, so being here in Casa Grande this year caught us off guard with all the pollen here. We were hoping for an easier allergy season but was WRONG... And yes... every time I sneeze or sniffle... people back away from me....
