I live in a small university town of 40,000 people. A shelter in place is mandatory. Parks, theaters and other public pomades have closed. Yet, sadly, there are some folks who do not take the physical distancing seriously. They step over the yellow police tape, ignoring the laws. They’re seen playing baseball and basketball and hugging.

My business is considered essential, yet I’ve chosen to decline all assignments. This was not an easy decision but I don’t want to take any risks for me and my family. And the clients.

Hopefully the public safety will cite these people instead of just giving warnings. Maybe then they’ll take it seriously.

Stay safe. Stay healthy. Wash those hands!
