MSG3: Meeting Regularly Now

[ColdSteel223]

August the 5th is next week, any thoughts? Has anyone ate out at a "sit down" place yet?

Maybe a drive thru and meet at a park for a gab session?

 

[bwframe]

Maybe pick up pizza and Karst Farm Park? Another park with less likelihood of Karens?

Weather forecast looks good for a bike ride?

Call me the ahole, but if we gotta mask up outside, I'm not interested.

It's depressing enough to go to stores in the county. If I can't see faces, I'll just ride around out here solo until all the skeert is gone or we are all dead.

I miss you all, but no sloppy wet kisses or hugs...

 

[ColdSteel223]

I would think that as long as we "distanced" outside that masks would not be required. Even in Monroe county.

 

[bwframe]

Maybe we need to get the lawyers working on how to interpret this?

PUBLIC HEALTH ORDER

PURSUANT TO STATE AND LOCAL LAW, INCLUDING IN DIANA CODE§ 16-20-1 et seq.
In light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the recent increase of new cases nationwide with a trend
towards cases in a younger population, Monroe County's increasing and dynamic population, and to
ensure that physical distancing and preventive measures vital to the mitigation of the pandemic remain
in place, I hereby order as follows, effective Wednesday, July 22, 2020 at 12:00 p.m./Noon (unless
otherwise stated below, as in Paragraphs 7-9):

1. Unless an exception as stated in Paragraph 2, below, applies, ALL individuals must wear a
face shield, face covering, or mask (collectively referred to, hereinafter, as "face covering")
over their nose and mouth when in an indoor place other than their own home or the home
of an immediate family member, or when outdoors in a situation where adequate physical
distancing of at least 6 feet is not possible (including outdoor public gatherings). While a
face shield is made of a harder, plastic-like material, an acceptable face covering or mask
under this Order means a covering made of cloth, fabric, or other soft or permeable material
that completely covers the nose and mouth and surrounding areas of the lower face . .

Persons unable to pay for a face covering should contact the Monroe County Health
Department, the Office of Emergency Management, or the Office of the Monroe County
Commissioners and one will be supplied at no cost. This face covering requirement
generally applies in all situations below, unless specifically and explicitly exempted below.
2. This requirement does not apply to the following exceptions provided they are factually and
legitimately applicable to an individual:

a. Children who are two years of age or younger.

b. Individuals who are hearing or speaking impaired and for whom a face covering is
an obstacle to communication.

c. Individuals who are unable to wear a face covering for a documented physical,
medical, or health-related reason.

d. Individuals in a hospital, doctor's office, dentist's office, or other health care facility,
in circumstances where wearing a face covering would be an impediment to
receiving proper care, as designated by the healthcare provider.

e. Individuals who are alone in an indoor space, such as in an office, or in a work-space
and are physically distanced from all other co-workers. When unable to physically
distance from others, a face covering is required.

f. Individuals who are traveling in personal vehicles.

g. Individuals for whom wearing a face covering would present a risk to their safety
while at work, as determined by local, state, or federal workplace safety
regulations.

h. Individuals who are incarcerated.

i. Individuals who are engaged in a form of indoor exercise...

No meeting in August. Will check in again next month.

FYI It looks like Mateos is closed. Drove by Saturday and all they had in the parking lot was a several tree trimming bucket trucks parked directly in front of the building. Facebook page is gone, so is their direct webpage. FYI

I fear that dinner meetings, as we know them, will never be the same.

September the 2nd is the first Wednesday of the month, any thoughts?

I fear that dinner meetings, as we know them, will never be the same.

****in’ A right, especially if I start showing up for a few. Looks like I will be a part time Bloomingtonian later this Spring, but for sure next winter & spring.

Any suggestions on finding temporary furnished housing? GF will be house hunting too.
