Recently our trips have been going to some woods or abandoned factories to try to trap lost dogs.&nbsp;&nbsp;But today, as we travelled through town, we heard the news from Ohio\u2019s Governor Mike DeWine.&nbsp;&nbsp;On a COVID crisis scale of 1 to 4, Franklin County (that\u2019s Columbus and the surrounding suburbs) is at a \u20183\u2019, and seems headed to \u20184\u2019.&nbsp;&nbsp;Four is the worst, back to the lockdown mode of March.&nbsp;&nbsp;I don\u2019t know what that means as far as businesses are concerned, but I expect restaurants and bars will be so limited that they are either forced to close by the state, or by the economics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We were out buying a new hot tub.\u00a0\u00a0For those who remember the days of track team parties and Cross Country winter runs at five in the morning, after twenty-one years my old hot tub finally bit the dust.\u00a0\u00a0There are lots of memories and scars on that thing.\u00a0\u00a0It\u2019s onto a new one, and it will be here on Monday.\u00a0\u00a0But the old standing invitation to use it anytime, even three in the morning or during a snow storm, isn\u2019t in effect.\u00a0\u00a0Not, at least, for a while:\u00a0\u00a0not until COVID-19 is no longer a big part of all of our lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Not Normal<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>And, for only the second time since the fifteenth of March, we ate at a restaurant.&nbsp;&nbsp;We were outside, on the patio, carefully placed away from others.&nbsp;&nbsp;It wouldn\u2019t really have mattered; three o\u2019clock isn\u2019t rush hour in most places, and certainly not at Fado\u2019s Irish Pub.&nbsp;&nbsp;But it still felt good to be out, to be drinking beer from the tap (Harp\u2019s \u2013 it\u2019s summer) and eating food someone else made \u201cright there\u201d.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;But with the virus growing, it\u2019s probably like that March 15<sup>th<\/sup>&nbsp;meal\u2026 the last time out for a while.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of our favorite places to visit is a little fishing town called Sebastian, Florida.&nbsp;&nbsp;We liked it so much, we spent the winter camped nearby (camper, not tent!!) a couple of years ago.&nbsp;&nbsp;The prime nightspot in Sebastian is Captain Hiram\u2019s Hotel and Restaurant, along with the \u201cSandbar\u201d bar.&nbsp;&nbsp;Just got an email:&nbsp;&nbsp;first a restaurant employee was diagnosed with COVID and the restaurants were closed. Now a hotel worker has it too.&nbsp;&nbsp;Captain Hiram\u2019s Resort is closed for the unforeseeable future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Figures Don\u2019t Lie<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The numbers are staggering:&nbsp;&nbsp;50,000 new cases of COVID-19 in the United States &#8212; every day.&nbsp;&nbsp;Sure we are testing more people.&nbsp;&nbsp;But more people are \u201cfailing\u201d the tests too.&nbsp;&nbsp;Statistically speaking if you test more, you should have a lot more negatives.&nbsp;&nbsp;But that\u2019s not what\u2019s happening.&nbsp;&nbsp;In places that tried to ignore the first onslaught of COVID, like Florida, and Texas and Arizona, now hospitals are getting maxed out with patients.&nbsp;&nbsp;And it\u2019s not just a \u201cred state\u201d phenomenon. California is also seeing staggering growth in disease diagnosis.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2,787,038 Americans have been diagnosed so far.&nbsp;&nbsp;130,906 have died.&nbsp;&nbsp;You do the math \u2013 but to save time \u2013 it\u2019s about 4.6%.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;That\u2019s 2300 deaths per 50,000 diagnosed.&nbsp;&nbsp;And the number diagnosed is growing exponentially (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ncov2019.live\/\">ncov2019.live<\/a>) (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/graphics\/2020\/national\/coronavirus-us-cases-deaths\/?hpid=hp_hp-top-table-main_web-gfx-death-tracker%3Ahomepage%2Fstory-ans&amp;itid=hp_hp-top-table-main_web-gfx-death-tracker%3Ahomepage%2Fstory-ans\">WAPO<\/a>).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are far, far from over the COVID pandemic.&nbsp;&nbsp;In fact, it seems we are really just beginning.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Heigh Ho Silver!!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There is some good news.&nbsp;&nbsp;President Trump yesterday actually said, \u201c\u2026I\u2019m all for masks\u201d.&nbsp;&nbsp;That&#8217;s a sea change from the \u201cI don\u2019t need one\u201d that we\u2019ve heard for the past four months.&nbsp;&nbsp;Now, he thinks it makes him, \u201c\u2026look like the Lone Ranger\u201d.&nbsp;&nbsp;That\u2019s fine if it works for him.&nbsp;&nbsp;And I\u2019ve already seen movement among his devout supporters, who until now have spent paragraphs on social media trying to disprove the value of masks.&nbsp;&nbsp;All of a sudden, they\u2019re wearing them.&nbsp;&nbsp;If mask wearing stops being a Red\/Blue symbol of ideology, and starts being the \u201chuman\u201d thing to do, I guess I don\u2019t care how it happens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wearing a mask is the right thing to do, though nowhere near a perfect \u201cpreventative\u201d.\u00a0\u00a0Your mask helps me, my mask helps you, social distancing helps us both, and staying at home helps us all.\u00a0\u00a0I know there are folks who can\u2019t tolerate an N-95 mask.\u00a0\u00a0So use a bandana.\u00a0\u00a0And I have a good friend who cannot hear, and reads lips.\u00a0\u00a0Masks cut her off from the spoken world.\u00a0\u00a0Our world needs to accommodate her needs.\u00a0\u00a0Social distancing and pulled down masks can work while we keep her in the conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Play with COVID<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve missed the time when we could \u201cstop the virus\u201d.&nbsp;&nbsp;Now we have to wait until we have a cure, and a vaccine.&nbsp;&nbsp;And for those who cruelly say, \u201c\u2026well we\u2019re all going to get it anyway, so let\u2019s get it over with\u201d:&nbsp;&nbsp;I hope it\u2019s not your mother, or wife, or father or son that can\u2019t \u201cbeat the odds\u201d and dies.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And while I\u2019m ranting, stop making fun of the college kids in Tuscaloosa.&nbsp;&nbsp;They had a \u201cCOVID Party\u201d, like the anti-vaxxers \u201cchicken pox parties\u201d.&nbsp;&nbsp;One person has the virus and everyone paid into the pot.&nbsp;&nbsp;The next person diagnosed wins the cash.&nbsp;&nbsp;Let\u2019s hope they don\u2019t win the big \u201cjackpot in the sky\u201d.&nbsp;&nbsp;The story reeks of \u201cprivilege\u201d, the privilege of ignoring science.&nbsp;&nbsp;That got us in this mess in the first place.&nbsp;&nbsp;Sure they\u2019re kids and they\u2019re being stupid.&nbsp;&nbsp;But there are plenty of elders who\u2019ve been just as stupid about this too.&nbsp;&nbsp;At least someone will get \u201csilver\u201d in this deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Home Bound<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s tough to travel:\u00a0\u00a0how do you stay in a hotel, or eat in a restaurant?
