What brings you to stay there? What's there to do in that area? Isn't that the state with weird diesel prices or something?

Before the 10 day window $25. Howevere many CG's are waivering cancellation fees if it is because of the Coronavirus. I don't know if Shipshewanna would be one of them.

It is 9 miles to Parkview LaGrange hospital and 16 miles to Goshen, 17 miles to Sturgis MI.

On another note!
Speaking to my son, husband to DIL who was exposed to virus, Pharmcist in charge of large compounding lab that supplies items to hospitals. I found that the exposure was from the second person in AR to die from virus. Hospital and staff had been trying to limit their nurses with children to certain emergence but when this patient arrived DIL was only nurse freed up to offer care.
Son also informed me that his company was designated essential and supplies were shipped to them with a higher priority than others. Even with this priority hand sanitizer was running low. So he ordered the nesseities to compound some, two 55gal barrels worth! He says they get calls daily from people wanting to buy "that virus vaccine ". Many don't believe them when told there is none. LUCKLY they already have pretty high security in place.

Mary Ann and I are still in "lock down" in Florida. Trips for groceries and doctors only. Finished my 5 iron infusions this week. Blood test soon to see if they helped. Swallowing is about 75% easier since they expanded my esophagas (sp).

We decided to hang out a few extra weeks in FL. Lock in rules are the same in Indiana so kids and grandkids can't visit (even to peek in the window. Have to be satisfied with seeing them on the internet. Besides, in FL it's warmer, we can go for a walk, and take golf cart rides in the park.

huntnski · 03-25-2020, 09:07 AM

Papa Steve we have so much in common. We both equate walks with golf cart rides in the park! That's why we host at the State Park, they provide the golf cart!

Let's hope we all can come out of lock down soon!

If you go to this newspaper article it is linked to an interactive map of confirmed cases of Covid 19.

Several weeks ago I asked if anyone would be interested in an early April GC in southern Arizona. I got very little response then so I just dropped the subject.

I’m going to ask again now that we are one of the safest places in the country. There’s a total of 3 cases of THE virus in Yuma County- a VERY large land mass with very few people. And only 45 cases and 2 deaths in the entire state. Also if, as many have suggested, warm weather will make this go away, Arizona will be rid of it soon.

There's a beautiful RV park here with cheap rates ($250/mo + 19 cents/kw electric). Check Facebook for the Oasis at Aztec hills RV park in Dateland, AZ. If you can boondock you are welcome to park here on Notta Ranch, about 6 miles from the park.

For those worried about going into town for groceries, I’ll volunteer to go for you once or twice a week.

Now is anyone interested?
