If you have a boat with a motor what do you need to launch it? A boat launch.

If you have a kayak what do you need to launch it? A boat launch.

She's shut down boat launches.

This. Is. Madness.

Ban me. Go ahead.
Seriously?

Thanks. But unfortunately my husband and I cannot legally take our boat out on the open waters to fish because of Govenor Whitmer's edics. Apparently fishing is super dangerous.

Oh, wait, no. You can fish legally from a kayak or a row boat or a sailing boat, that's super safe. It's just a boat that has a motor that is illegal in Michigan. Yup, makes perfect sense. We also cannot buy seeds or plants from greenhouses. Excellent. Makes perfect sense.

Sunrise, I am unclear how your comments are related in any way to this topic. Now I too am going to step away as like Usia I don’t believe it would end well.

I have read about this craziness in Michigan....not being allowed to purchase seeds and gardening supplies because they are not considered "essential"!
Our governor in MN has closed all lakes and parks in the Twin Cities.

I have snoozed several of my FB friends because they were posting multiple articles on a daily basis about how bad things are or are going to be. While I do take this whole thing seriously, I do not need to read daily articles about everybody who is suffering because of it. I can't do anything about them, and the multiple daily reminders just bring me down--and I'm already struggling with loneliness (I live alone), nervousness, and depression. So--yeah. Of course, I'm sure I have a few friends who believe the conspiracy theories, but I stopped following them years ago, so I really haven't seen much of that line of thinking on my FB feed.

I'm keeping in touch with my sisters, my Mom, and a few close friends via texting, phone, email, etc. The rest are on hold until we start hearing better news.
