Trump is back in office so the Left needs to ramp up the pandemic shit again.

They’ve tried it a few times and haven’t had much success. I guess I’ll give them points for tenacity. 😏

Now, hey you, mister, can’t you read?
You’ve got to have a mask and jab to get a seat
You can’t even watch, no you can’t eat
You ain’t supposed to be here
The sign said you got to have a vaccination card to get inside...Ugh!

Masks are not automatically a bad idea. If you have the virus, you should self-quarantine or wear a proper mask if you have to go out. The rest of us shouldn’t have to wear masks. Those who are high risk (immune-compromised, elderly, respiratory problems) should consider masks if they have to be in close quarters out in public. That’s how it’s supposed to work, not how they had everyone in masks, sick or not.

No it wasn’t, lol. I still remember the burn trails down my cheeks. I only had to go once in 4 years. Thank the rain gods.

trying to stop a virus with a cloth mask is about as effective as trying to stop a stream of water with a chain link fence.

Yes, there will be some water on the fence afterwards, but that has no bearing on the fact that the vast majority got through.

A place called Chinese Camp, California. It's in Northern California. Here the link to an article about it:

Thank-you.

I hope these wildfires are contained.

The Gold Country is one of my favorite areas of California.

"The Gold Country is one of my favorite areas of California."

I've only been to California once, and that was with a friend who lived in Arizona at the time. She had booked a 5 day cruise to the Mexican Rivera and asked me if I'd like to come along. I'd never gone on a cruise before, and she said it was only 5 days, and it should be enough time for me to make up my mind about any future cruises. I flew to Arizona, and she drove us to San Diego, where the ship left from, so that was the only area we visited before the cruise left. Turns out I'm not the cruise type, and if I'd had my choice, my first cruise would have been someplace other than Mexico. Too old and dilapidated now to do any traveling other than visit family a couple of hours away. Glad I did get to do what I did while I could still do it.
