March 24, 2020 Just after 9AM Center of Town
Friday, March 20th, 2020. It's a Friday at around 5PM. Usually there are a lot of commuters on their way home. Being Friday in Wisconsin means it's also the weekly Fish fry at the local eateries. Main Street is usually parked full from shoppers and folks trying to get an early start on their crunchy, tasty meals. Not on this particular evening due to the beginning Pandemic. At this point there is still a tremendous amount of uncertainty as to what the future holds. While we know the virus is spreading at an incredible rate, there is no way of know where it's at until you have it. Catching seems to be a certainty. Hopefully we can slow down the infections. I hope I have prepared myself and my family enough to survive. I worry a lot about the vulnerable all over the world. It's so frustrating not having any real personal means to "fight back." We can only take care of those immediately around us. Maybe this will teach us to be kinder to those closest to us?
