Quick field report:
Went out tonight around 6:00 PM to Walmart, general shopping, CVS, and finally a local diner for fish & chips and a pizza (for me and the Mrs., and no, we do not mix them before someone asks- I hate tartar sauce on my pizza, and pepperoni on my fish).
Wally World has one entrance, one exit, both manned and in radio communication with each other. The store customer limit is 490 people and they count people coming and going. Things have been moved around in the store, and there are floor stickers around the deli counter as well as checkout denoting the suggested 6 foot spacing. Stock was pretty good, even got a four- pack of T.P., no- name brand but it is soft, 2- ply. Otherwise we got everything we wanted overall, though some trade- off of brands, package size but no big deal. People were surprisingly (amazingly!) civil and well- behaved. Lots of people wearing masks, perhaps 15- 20% of the total people including employees.
CVS was orderly, did NOT require a signature, and had payment setups back away from the counter to prevent a log- jam of people. Overall, not bad at all.
Restaurant was almost empty though kitchen staff was really slinging hash ( busy). Of course they are open for take- out only and this particular place does not deliver.
Liquor store across the street was fairly busy but I did not see any fist- fights nor did I hear any gunshots so I can only assume it was going OK in there. There has been talk of closing the liquor stores, the only source for any alcoholic beverage of any kind in this state but that has not gone further. Seriously, I would keep my powder extra- dry if that should happen 'cause I figure bad behavior will soon follow closing those stores.... :-(
Medium traffic, light for a Friday night and again, civil and organized.
Overall, it is going better than I had hoped and a lot better than I had feared, at least so far.
