Anna Hagele typically shops for groceries for her and her four children at the Walmart Supercenter on Herrera Drive in Santa Fe because she likes the prices.
However, on Friday, Hagele found herself waiting in a line of 40 people outside a local Albertsons, after the state announced Wednesday the Herrera Drive Walmart would be closed for the next two weeks – one of a dozen grocery stores in New Mexico closed in recent weeks due to multiple cases of COVID-19 among workers.
The Herrera Drive Walmart is one of three grocery stores currently closed in Santa Fe under an edict that allows the New Mexico Department of Health to close workplaces down for two weeks if they have four or more COVID-19 rapid responses in a 14-day period.

Or, like I said, on another NM thread.....just riot that WallyWorld. Those, per leftists, are a-okay, right?
What a little freak.
My daughter is stuck there, she’s married to an Air Force officer. She spends her days looking at real estate back here in the south and just waiting til he can get orders out of there. She was in despair because she can’t get a turkey, nor any Turkey parts for Thursday. The weather is cold, windy, rainy and people are standing in line for hours on end.
Kirtland?

My dad was stationed there 63-67 as Chief Atomic Weapons material when the east side was named Sandia. Graduated high school there and enlisted in the Navy there in 67. Abq was awesome 50+ years ago. Thanks for the service to them.
