Well that was the right decision. You could buy a take away coffee at one or two shops but for the rest of the area it was tightly closed. If we could have bought food we would have been greeted by these scenes in the picnic areas.
As you can see all the tables, benches and BBQ's are taped up whichever way you looked.
I know that this is the only way to stop large groups congregating in areas but it was a strange, hostile and unwelcoming feeling. After sitting in the car and enjoying the view of the water it was time to head back to the safety and comfort of our home.
We both agreed that it would be best to wait until things are "mostly back to normal" before we start venturing out again. In the meantime we will stay at home and continue with our COVID-19 projects.
Back soon and in the meantime
Happy
sewing all

It is a funny old world we are living in
It sure is a funny ole world you live in.....
Thankfully our restrictions have eased a little.....
What you experienced is rather different to here. Nothing is taped off, not even playgrounds or outdoor gym equipment in parks, which surprised us. We were naughty and went for a drive a couple of weeks ago. We packed a picnic and drove about 60kms south to Burraga Dam, a rather remote water supply built to supply some mines in the 1920s. It is normally a popular picnic and camping area. We were the only ones there. The weather wasn’t very nice so we ate our lunch in the car and then drove home. We were definitely social distancing, as we didn’t even hop out of the car, but it was wonderful to go for a drive.
Yes we are the same... staying home and keeping as safe as possible.
This weekend seeing that some restrictions have been lifted or loosened... I hope everyone venturing out practises hygiene and courtesy. If we keep our distance we will win...xox
Pennsylvania has all the playgrounds blocked off and some places have signs on benches but I think most of the parks left picnic tables unmarked, although until this weekend we were encouraged not to use them. Bathrooms are finally starting to reopen at parks.
