Opening Day

Opening day.
All you have to do
is say the words and
you feel the shutters
thrown wide,
the room air out,
the light pour in.

California is moving forward with a dramatic grand reopening of the economy on June 15 that will remove nearly all the restrictions residents have been living with since March 2020. If all goes as expected and promised, our 15 month-long ordeal of public health restrictions, mandates, bans and color-coded tiers to stem the Covid-19 pandemic will finally come to an end. The virus, diminished but not defeated, has killed 62,500 Californias and counting. Glad I got my vaccines in March.

Mandates may be lifting, but I'm still gonna be super cautious. This thing ain't gone, that's for sure. Hopefully we can all stay safe while getting back to "normal"!

PA has removed its emergency restrictions finally! Hooray I can shop and breath again. And all is well so far as many have been vaccinated or are out of danger. Sanity and normal are in again.

I love all the colours. Good luck with the opening! Our first level of restrictions has stopped but it's a 4 stage plan.

Love the colorful shot of the tickets. Our community center opened today. Non-vaccinated residents are still supposed to wear a mask, but I don’t really trust that non-vaccinated will tell the truth. Since I’m still on oxygen and still healing my lungs, I’m still wearing a mask.

Cool image! Ohio USA opened up again with the health restrictions lifted June 2. It was really weird at first to go anywhere without a mask. I’m still being cautious.

Hope the progress carries on
