Dirtyhip Posted March 22, 2020 Share #351 Posted March 22, 2020 I went on a CX ride today, because there was masses of people in the park, and the trails are narrow. This allowed me to have plenty of space. I did stop and see a large group, like 15, all taking a group photo. Now, Oregon is closing all state parks. This is why we can't have nice things. People. FUCK Oregon Beaches this weekend Totally disgusted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most campuses gave the students 5 days to pack up and get out, didn't matter if they paid for it or not. I wouldn't think many had options other than home to vulnerable parents.

Is this a private firm or a municipality? I have not heard of any city municipality shutting down their garbage pickup full-on yet. It would not be wise. We have a private firm pick up for condo bldg. No stoppage yet. thank your garbage pick up folks.

Apparently, when NY/NJ went on the lockdown, air travel skyrocketed as they sought to get out of NY/NJ with many coming to Florida. Appears to be everyone even if not from NY and were unlucky have a plane change at one of the NY/NJ hubs. Assumes at least one person on the flight would have been affected. Can't do it for car traffic though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, she is struggling to get home from outside the country, with her 75 year old Mother who is traveling with her, and no idea of what her financial situation is going to even look like when she returns.

I stopped keeping a journal in my early 20s. Then gave up on my cycling journal after lst 2 yrs. of returning to cycling. After cherry blossom blog post (waiting to be released like dove), sorta thinking about something meditative that would allude to cv-19 with some beautiful flower shots I took...different from cherry blossom. (This feels funereal.. The floral part.) But huge part of me, doesn't want to be specific, because things change daily which colours my feelings and gets too personal in a blog. My blog is intended to be more visual and positive in tone, or at least reflective. There are a number of significant things that I care over the years, get angry and have tried to make a difference, but blog doesn't really delve into that. Then it would be long posts. Still thinking about it. Have covered some historic events as someone in the midst of it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bikeguy Posted March 24, 2020 Share #399 Posted March 24, 2020 This is an interesting web site about "the curve". When the graph opens it is in a logarithmic scale. I like this scale,, you can see the rate of doubling much easier. If you want to see the linear scale (which makes the news as the curve), click the word LOG in the top left of the graph. We have a long way to go.... Japan, and South Korea have flattened their curve. China has too, if you believe their data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will see what tomorrow brings. Total was incredibly stressful. Thought I was being laid off, and then found I was going to work from home. Had to pick up some equipment, ride over to grab the truck, load everything up, drive home, and then get back to pick my husband up. Today was insane. I am taking all my vitamins, drinking plenty of water and taking good care of myself. Going to bed very early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
