I am right in the city. And suffering.
I am truly VERY sorry to hear that, BunnySlippers. :-(
We have family members who live in the city of LA as well. They have a new baby, so they've been distracted, and kind of confined to home anyway for the past two months. I just roll my eyes when I see pics of them walking outside in the heat wearing masks.
At least in our semi-rural area here in CT, we do NOT wear masks outside. Nobody is monitoring us out here. As long as we stay away from any crowded outdoor trails, we have a fair amount of freedom outside. However in cities like LA, SF, NY, etc. I suppose you can't get away with that.
