i did an overnight on some (i thought) obscure blm land, only car in the lot as i set out. when i got back to the trailhead earlier today there were multiple 15+ people groups, zero masks in sight. i just sat outside the parking lot and waited for them to gently caress off.

normally I’d go out to a nearby trailhead for some fresh air, even after our state’s “public parks are open” thing people have been fairly good, but it being memorial day weekend is putting me squarely into a “rivet the door closed” mindset, I don’t think it’s even going to be worth driving past it to see how bad it is



i already usually didn’t hit stores on holiday weekends because of too many crowds/too much hassle but this adds some new and interesting connotations to that, black friday’s gonna have a whole new meaning :unsmigghh:

picked some nearby woods and went geocaching with the kids today. hardly anyone on the trails and the few we did see we would just shout geocache! and go dive into the underbrush. thinking this is going to be our preferred outdoor activity this summer,

though I legit think drive in movies should be pretty safe. unfortunately there's like 1 within a hundred miles of me and everyone is going to think the same thing. you're going to have to line up like 2 hours ahead of time to get in, which is just not an option with a 4 year old.

maybe a bunch of cattle farmers that can't sell their beef should get in on this action.

Been filling all my local caches with roni for some suckers to dig up.

Exactly.

You must practice Zen like restraint and patience. When you start to feel that urge to go outside, understand that millions of people also feel that urge, and also think, "well, it's camping, it can't hurt, right?" and that little voice is the collective unconscious putting out feelers to see if the plague is gone yet. Like penguins pushing each other into the water to see if there are leopard seals down there.

Be smarter than your idiot meat brain and put off going camping for a couple months.

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. -- A Great Clips hair stylist in Springfield has tested positive for COVID-19 and worked several days while symptomatic.

Seven co-workers and 84 clients were potentially directly exposed, according to the Springfield-Greene County Health Department.

The individual recently returned from travel elsewhere in Missouri outside of the Springfield region, according to Springfield-Greene County Health Department Director Clay Goddard.

"I'll be honest, I'm very frustrated to be up here today, and maybe more so I'm disappointed," said Goddard. "I think we need to comprehend the consequences of this."

Goddard said even though the individual and their clients wore masks during the timeline of potential exposure, this should not have happened in the first place. Co-workers and clients who were potentially directly exposed will be notified by the health department and offered testing.

The health department hopes for no additional cases since the individual, co-workers and clients wore face masks throughout this exposure timeline.

"We can't make this a regular habit or our capability as a community will be strained and we will have to reevaluate how things look going forward," he said.

I get to get a roni Test in a couple of days because I’m having surgery done on my shoulder and they are requiring everyone has one pre surgery and TBH it would own if it comes back positive since I haven’t had any symptoms so that would mean I’m one of the lucky ones.

some Badlands areas like south of Sage Creek are remote enough and might have limited coverage depending on your carrier.

Boundary Waters has cell coverage now, but lol that's closed afaik

if you avoid the outhouses, I don't see why some reservation only hike in sites wouldn't be safe.

I bet a half days hike along the more rural stretches of the AT can get you remote enough to still have cell coverage and be safe
