I went to the supermarket today and was struck by how "quiet" the roads were. On my way home I took some random shots from the car. Since I was basically the only car on the road I was able to stop and take the shot at my leisure!
Here's an assortment on empty roads, cars at home, deserted restaurants and parking lots, creative ways churches are staying open and how the schools are getting lunch to their students on the food program, closed schools and Nature's response to all this craziness- the Bushkill keeps flowing and the daffodils are blooming.
I think watching the progress of spring is one of the things that is keeping me sane. It feels good somehow that nature is enjoying carrying on as usual.
At times it's eerie how little traffic there is. I went out today to take my truck for a drive (not my prime vehicle and I want to keep it running well) and had traffic the entire time.
Thank you Helen, Ferry, Lisa, Milanie, Babs, Dorre, and Kathy!
I must say, I am not scared. I am living smart and following what needs to be done but not succumbing to the fear, panic and chaos the media reports aim to fester. I went to the post office today and there were a lot more cars on the road. I think it was due to the weather. Yesterday was gray, damp and overcast. Today it's sunny and warm. I have to say though people in the supermarket were great at being friendly at a distance and pleasant. People at the post office (the patrons not the postal workers) were obviously fearful. I'm not sure why, but I just mailed my packages and smiled anyway!
Thank you Wendy, Diane, and Kathy! Interestingly I had to go to the post office the next day and there were a lot more cars on the road. The difference? It was sunny and warm. It was still lighter than usual, but people were out enjoying the sun.

Great shots. .
We are still able to walk on our beaches but keep to the social distancing rules. No social activities on the beach now though.
