tracker7Taking the Mariner to the shop in the morning. Due for an oil change, and he's leaking coolant from somewhere. Not entirely sure how the shop is handling a waiting area; if I have to come back to the house, it's a nice walk or a short ride if the weather demands it.
This has been a heck of a pretty day. Sunny and just warm enough. Spent some time reading in the back yard, until the grass and dust from a neighbor's mowing got the best of me. Seasonal allergies are bad enough during normal times here in the Ohio Valley; throw in a respiratory illness pandemic, and an innocent-if-irritating sneezing fit becomes a cause for very mild concern.
As of this afternoon, Kentucky's at 7,080 COVID-19 cases, with 326 deaths and 2,649 recoveries. 137 cases per 100,000 residents, less than half of the national rate of 354 per 100K. There's been one case, a recovery, within my immediate circle, and one death if you extend things out a couple of degrees.
