February 29, 2020 NEWSPAPER HEADLINES & GRAPH: There are 24 cases of Coronavirus in the U.S.  NOTE: This may have been the last “normal” day we would experience in the year 2020, although we didn’t know it at the time. We were surrounded by a dozen people in the shop’s small room, then went to a restaurant where we sat down to eat with others, not thinking at all about social distancing or the Coronavirus. Although the major papers had headlines about the virus, many papers did not. The U.S. had 68 confirmed cases.

Blog: We had a nice time tonight when we drove into a nearby town to visit a friend’s shop’s grand opening and dined on (amazing) burgers and fries.
