Protect OUR Elders!
Greetings and salutations from the sand, sun and surf of Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard and the illuminated, cloud filled, cool, 24 Karat island of Nantucket! Great to be with you on this First Day of April, 2020, a quiet Wednesday overcast morning here on Ocean Street in Historic Hyannis, with very little in the way of human activity going on outside of this humble reporter’s window, but plenty of wildlife making noise, such as Red tailed Blackbirds, Blue Jays, Cardinals, Morning Dove’s, song sparrows, Chickadees, and Greater Black Backs all gratefully singing Dawn’s praises,
songs rising high above the ‘things of Man’…
AHOY!
A somber message per the President of the United States yesterday, speaking LIVE with his pandemic crew from the White House press room, indeed, a man who seems converted to scientific reality when it comes to the COVID-19 plague, voicing sobering numbers like;
“…if we do everything right, we could lose up to 250,000 people, many of whom will pass in the month of April, with some estimates, if mitigation is not adhered to religiously, per Dr, Anthony Fauci, the president’s point guard scientifically, reaching upwards of 2 million or more…”
How can some in power keep their heads in the sand?
Ron Desantis, Governor of Florida, refuses to adopt the simple guidelines set out by the White House, such as social distancing, hand washing, staying home, indeed, this moron is keeping restaurants and bars open, beaches open, sand bars open for partying like it’s 1999, as these mostly young people expose themselves to the virus, infecting others in the process such as seniors who are most at risk. It is unconscionable what is happening in this big state, especially when you have a real conversion happening at the top, Donald J. Trump, who may be best served if he makes a phone call to this clown, demanding he shut down the state and adopt strict measures like they have done in San Francisco, Washington State and New York City.
This virus has no ‘time’ line, and who knows if it will cause all of that death and destruction. Therefore, we must be vigilant and thankful that we are all, for the most part, pulling together, taking care of one another and praying for the soldiers on the front line, health care workers, who may save your grandma, grandpa, mom, dad, sister or brother, wife, your children, your friends, colleagues, neighbors and acquaintances.
Stay strong, safe and secure America!
God Bless you ALL!
PRESERVE THE WILDERNESS! Peace~M
