Today I drove from Arkansas to Alabama. I have an appointment that can’t be changed for tomorrow in Georgia, so I might as well shut it down early this afternoon while truck parking is still easy to find, and get rolling again super early in the a.m. to make it to the con on time. Today in Arkansas, I was disappointed to see that, despite the signs on the doors and placed throughout the truck-stops, almost nobody other than the employees and myself are wearing masks or maintaining anything like a 6ft social distancing. It seems awfully disrespectful to the workers who are showing up everyday to serve our needs and wants to go into these establishments without a mask, but I guess I can really only manage myself. It is worrisome. I do hope we don’t see nationwide COVID spikes in a few weeks as a result of this non-observance of even basic precautions. I guess only time will tell.
