Glad to see more businesses (people) are being allowed to resume their place in the community. I'm very thankful North Dakota has been way ahead of most of the nation as very little was shut down in the 1st place and now I believe everything is open. Nina Hollander I hope everyone is safe in NC with the flooding I am hearing about.

Bob "RealMan" Timm thanks, Bob... not sure where there is flooding in NC... none in my area... and I admit I'm not following the coastal areas or mountain areas very closely. My bad. Now, off to call my hair dresser... haven't had a hair trim in 4 months... that's alot for someone who gets her hair trimmed every 4-5 weeks!

Bob "RealMan" Timm the way I cut my hair, there's never enough "length" to do that I'm afraid! :)

Before you go... got enough to trim off to build me a hair piece .

Michael Jacobs thanks, Michael, for the good wishes. I'm one of those who believes that more opening up of our world will result in more herd immunity... not that I'm going crazy and taking any chances.

Nina,

How wonderful that you have some services open.  I have not had a haircut for over 5 months now.  I get one every 3 months...LOL.(I get my hair cut in Beverly Hills, and LA county is on shut down for another 3 months) I heard that Santa Barbara is working on criteria for restaurants...I don't know what it will be yet...A

Your Phase Two his more liberal than our Phase Two that we're currently in. However, if numbers stay low, our Phase Three could start around mid-June -- when I'll get my hair cut!!

Nina, it is nice to hear about re-opening all over, but watching the news this morning, we are seeing more outbreaks, which is a bit scary.

Lottie Kendall hi Lottie... you might just end up jumping ahead of us. Our modified Phase 2 is in effect till June 26th... no word on a broader Phase 2, much less Phase 3. Unless of course, there's a revolution in North Carolina before that. I haven't been to the gym since early March and they are closed at least till end of June.

Joan Cox hi Joan... I think it's important not just to watch the outbreaks, but how many hospitalizations and deaths. Those have been going way down, in general, as a percentage of outbreaks which means the virus is losing some steam.

Baby steps, right?  We are going to be self-isolating for much of our trip. Called each state and discussed their protocols - since we have some nights in hotels, I also discussed their cleaning and safety protocols. It's important for people to handle this with a high degree of responsibility. I'm with you though, it feels good to have some lessening of restrictions.  We are packing up the car and hoping to hit the road soon. Have a great weekend, Nina. D

So glad you get to move to Phase 2.  Part of our state has but the Governor still has our county stuck in Phase I.

Carol Williams good morning again, Carol... at this stage I believe so many of these highly restrictive measures are seeing diminishing returns while allowing people to "suffer" economically and health-wise.
