Hadn't been more than 10 miles from home in the last month or so

So, today my wife needed to take our dog to the vet to get something checked. So, she drove her car and I drove my truck and I met her there. But, on the way I wanted to see if they kept open some of the public beaches within 10 to 15 miles of where we live on the ocean. So, I was happy to see people on this particular beach because it is a really beautiful one even though they had closed parking where you could actually see the beach and had to park a couple of blocks away to visit it.

Later at the Vets I realized I had to go to the bathroom which really can be a problem when you are away from home because so many places are open but sort of locked down where you have to call just to go inside somewhere before you go there. My son in portland, Oregon said he went to the bank there and they wouldn't let him in unless he called ahead and said what he wanted to do which was. a problem for him because he had to go to work within 10 minutes and couldn't arrange that right then.

So, he had to put off his banking until another day.

So, I went to a more remote beach where I could safely use the bathroom where no one would stop me and I felt safe there in all ways. Then I called my wife on the smartphone and she came and met me there and we walked through the Golden California poppies which are in bloom where I live now on the Northern California coast for spring time.

It was great to get out away from our area for a little bit but I noticed people were going camping and fishing it looked like too because things are starting to open up little by little it seems here in Northern California after a pretty severe month of not going anywhere and staying in my home area like the other 40 million Californians in addition to Oregon and Washington too and many other states.
