Strange Days (March 29, 2020)

Been off here for a while as Winter has been winding down.As winters go, this one was pretty moderate. We had a few short additional bouts of snow but not a great deal. It was certainly nothing like the amount we had last year.
Spring is now here and it is certainly looking and feeling like it here in Central Ohio. I like to get out at dawn and get some morning photos. It has been beautiful here and enjoy the quiet at dawn. Have been trying to get a photo of a pair of local Blue Herons but have not had much luck to this point. See them flying, but can't get a good picture.
Of course for the past couple of weeks have been dealing with the advent of the Coronavirus in the USA. Found out last night that the disease has come to nearby New Carlisle but to be honest it has probably been here for some time.Testing for the virus is just now ramping up here. Ohio has been under a stay at home order. That means in this state that restaurants have to be drive though or carry out, many many places and businesses have been closed, and people are asked to stay home except for vital needs such as food. You can get outside for exercise. Have enjoyed taking walks with my wife Debbie.
Worry about this bug, but have been doing our best to keep indoors. Luckily we have a great time together and there are a lot of things to do here in the house. In addition to enjoying each other we watch movies and shows on tv. I have been enjoying Google Earth Flight Simulator and exploring the world via the computer. Occasionally we get in some walks as noted. I also am lucky in that I have the recumbant bicycle and my weight bench with a good weight set downstairs in the basement. Have been working out at home for years and enjoy that a great deal. I am hoping that this disease is not as bad as is being talked about in numbers and this social distancing makes a real distance. We are hoping that the things we are doing keeps us safe and our community safe. We are keeping the world in our prayers.
