Drove to town this morning to get some chicken feed. Saw 5 cars on the road, this at 8 AM when it is usually almost bumper to bumper on route 23. Most businesses are closed down. I went to Tractor Supply, was the only person there other than the owner and Gail the cashier. One bakery/deli was open, most days it is hard to find a parking place in front of it but they had no customers. Normally I do not stop there as I do not eat bread but I went in and bought a loaf (the wife will eat it) and a coffee. Owner told me I was the third person to stop in since 5AM. Plain weird!

That is definitely one of the advantages of what is going on right now.

Very little traffic.

I drove through Vegas yesterday, pulling my boat. I-15 and the 95 route towards Phoenix was just as Crazy as ever.

That is my life everyday, few people, no traffic an love it that way. Nothing different here in rural america that I can see. I don't listen to all that noise but I have heard of the requirements of responsibility for each person in this changing time.
If there was bumper to bumper and no place to park I wouldn't feel at home living there. Something drastically would be wrong if I came to town and seen that. LOL
Normal as always here.

I ran my 100 mile beaver line (after working until 3) last night and saw 6 passenger cars ( all before 6 PM) 7 tractor trailers, and 5 farm tractors on the road.
