    Well our Governor claims the state is in quarantine. She supposedly has authorized the police to randomly harras the locals to make sure we arent violating this. The police have declared the governor can go suck an egg. They are out there for emergencies, they are not out there to annoy the locals.

    We are still a free state. But everything is closing up. OR has closed up. There is no point in doing anything now other than food, if you can get it. Dentists ahve closed except one chain and many doctors probably have closed up as well.

    Our parks have been abused by outside residents trying to escaped their lock downs. The Gov wants to close or has closed some. If that does not make improvements then he will just close the whole thing lock stock and barrel.

    My first run back. Stuck me with a snowstorm. At least I got Pierre delivered. Gotta wait to get to Rapid. It’s down right nasty out there. 5 to 8 inches of snow expected in Rapid. Through midnight Thursday. Doh!
    Forget trying to get a cup of coffee, late at night, in Pierre. Maybe when this place opens in morning. Might find a single cup maker or something to heat water. Something this inverter can handle.

    OBX....a sandbar off the coast of NC.

    Our police are using a similar amount of commonsense here on the sandbar. Not messing with locals unless your:

    1. Driving like an idiot
    2. Trying to run the checkpoint to the sandbar. No visitors, an only residents an folks from the next county allowed over.
    3.Sticking someone in your trunk an trying to smuggle them on to the sandbar. It's legit. https://islandfreepress.org/outer-banks-news/dare-sheriffs-deputies-ticketing-checkpoint-cheaters/
    4. Putting an ad up on Craigslist saying you'd get people on the sandbar that aren't residents...again..it's a legit story here Kitty Hawk police call out Craigslist poster offering rides to the OBX - OBX Today
    5. Be a dumb ### an attract their attention.

    For the most part their being rather relaxed. Normally this time of the year the state bears are writing tickets left an right, the county an town boys are off harassing tourists.

    The link in #4...folks might be like no biggie, only residents have local ids. Not so my friends. Shocking I know. The 3 cases in my county? All of the people infected our outside of my county an haven't been here in at lest a year, an one guy 5 years. The county gets the "credit" for the infection because of the address the person gives.

    Anyhow...my cops for the most part be like..

    Officer #1 "Should we light him up an pull'm over?"
    Officer # 2

    I understand Vermont has ordered Target and Walmart to strip their stores of everything except Food and Medicine. Its no longer lawful in Vermot to sell anything else in store.
