60. Yes, we always need the rain. For once we are above average.

But we just got there in the past couple of days. The other good thing about the rain is that it is keeping people at home.

Well, almost everyone. I just got what they call 'a one call now' from the village office.

They had to close the dog park because people were not obeying social distancing rules. They normally sit down there in a big circle of chairs, practically on top of each other. (The dogs are much more well-behaved than the people.)

I had to explain to someone what the six foot rule was about, that it wasn't just some random number pulled out of someone's head. So they moved the chairs apart for a while. Apparently that didn't last long. The dog park was closed two days ago and we just got another warning that people are still going in there.
90% of the people who go in the dog park are Republicans. Beyond stupid! How hard is it to stay six feet away from someone?

Anyway, I'm glad you are staying safe. And I will join you in holding up a candle in memory of all those we have lost.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
