    Haven’t read last few pages but heard rumor of non essential (grocery) commercial trucking being shut down. Anybody else heard that?

    My cousin is a lot lizard and this could really put a damper on her business.  She might have to take a second job at a second rest stop on I20.  This virus is really wreaking havoc on the small business owners.

    Guys, thanks for participating in this thread and offering your thoughts, advice, and plans.

    This is the good stuff. I’m not ashamed to say I’ve broken down a few times the past few days. From worrying about the people I have to worry about. From seeing the beauty of humanity that is our potential - singing from balcony to balcony, checking on each other. From relief, talking to my daughter in another country who is frustrated, sad, but also handling it in stride, like the wise adult we raised her to be.

    And a little bit from hope. The hope that we can take this pause - imposed on us by our planet - to grasp that we are a human family. For the first time in perhaps centuries, all of humanity is embarking on a shared experience. China, Italy, Norway, Canada, here - I have spoken in the last 48 hours with people in all of those places (except China) who are having the same experience. This situation came about because we are connected, and our shared experience emphasizes that connection.

    Keep doing what you are doing. Deep breaths. Get outside. Help where you can. And when this is all over, remember. Remember who we are, and who we can be.

    Your welcome
