Yesterday I did a heavy shopping tour, getting hopefully two or three weeks worth of perishables in, but we do normally have a few months worth of canned and dry goods in at all times. Yesterday I also reluctantly posted on line a cancellation of our local BPCRS & PCLARS matches that were scheduled for next weekend, that typically bring some folks in from out of the area, thus the justification for the cancellation. Today I'm attending our regularly scheduled local muzzleloader match at one of my favorite sites, the old Butler ranch, where typically no more than a dozen locals show up and shoot. Today I'll be surprised if we get half a dozen. Open air venue, so no problem keeping reasonable distancing, and a truly beautiful locale with expansive views across and down the valley.

After today I'll be staying home mostly fiddling with alidades and other old surveying equipment, doing a bit of drafting, and perhaps finally getting around to building a few switches for my long overdue "garden", well backyard anyway, railroad!?!?
