And therein lies the problem. Florida's cases have exploded overnight and the Governor has asked Trump to restrict domestic travel because people are (admirably) trying to make the best of a bad situation and going to the beach, their second homes, etc. Only they are being vectors of the virus and bringing it with them. Surely some of it is due to more and better testing procedures that are ramping up daily, but it is very telling that the cases being reported now are mostly travel related and in mostly tourist areas such as Lauderdale, Miami, etc. When they come to the beach, they try to act like everything is normal and it's a normal vacation, so they go to the stores for supplies, they still try to eat out, they still try to shop, and all the stuff we want to do on vacation. That ain't how social distancing works. The same rules apply whether you are holed up at home or at your beach house or condo.

Yeah, wife had plans to take the kids to Destin next week for Spring Break, and I had to convince her last night to cancel those plans. Waiting to hear back from the property owner on any refund, but that's really the least of our worries right now.
