COVID-19, Social Distancing Continues and A New World is Evolving

We watch the daily white house briefings and the circus with Donald Trump never ceases to amaze us. Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx are the only members of this team that make sense. Pence is a total suck-up to Herr Trump. Spring is here and we get to go for walks and enjoy the weather. Hard to believe that 35.000 Americans have died so far. Continuing to pray.

COVID-19, Social Distancing and A New World

In this episode we talk about the rapidity the Coronavirus has altered the world. All Californians are required to stay home (noon-essential) and the disease has changed the world. The stock market is lower than it has been in years. We need to stay 6 feet away from people and there is a shortage of paper products. Never in our lives have we experienced these worries. We are considered the "vulnerable" group (over 60) but we are in better shape because our overall health is good. Praying for the world.
