It's a mess. There are "visitors" from most everywhere that come from a high COVID incident rate city and get STVRs (Short Term Vacation Rentals). Then there were the "Spring Breakers" who were running wild, literally, all over the island, especially on the beach. The City Council closed the beaches mainly to keep the partying crowd away. But for those locals, like me, who walk, run, ride, or just sit on the beach, it was not well accepted. Having the restaurants and bars closed is really hurting the service people, as only some of them are working doing takeout orders.
One of our city police officers tested positive for COVID-19, and since he had been around four other officers they have all been put into quarantine so the Georgia State Patrol was asked to come in and help.
Meanwhile, after WofTy is through with me for the day, I take my book, beer, and radio out to the dock and soak up some Vitamin D and listen to the silence from the highway across the marsh.
