In CA they have allowed us to have to go alcohol from restaurants! BevMo where I buy most of my alcohol has this wonderful order online and curbside pick up in about an hour or two. I think they figure we are easier to handle when we are drunk at home. They could be right.

What did they ask and do at the checkpoint?
It splits into two lanes. Pull up and stop they are sitting in chairs several feet away. Not police, some had masks some didn’t. Plenty of cops but they are just there. I’ve been through 3 times I believe and only one question. Where are you traveling from? Georgia. Have a nice day sir.

I would assume they look at plate as you pass
Semi trucks had their own lane.

In Oregon they're allowing alcohol deliveries and curbside pickup of weed. Here In Portland and across the river in Vancouver all the grocery stores are open and are full of people. Same with the big box stores. We even have strippers delivering food. I'm crediting the swift action to shut down the bars and restaurants and a big push for social distancing for the low number of cases we have here. For instance, Mississippi has half the population of Oregon but twice the cases. But here the governor didn't listen to the moron and shut things down. Mississippi took their direction from the moron and treated it like a common cold. They just issued a stay in place order two weeks ago. Oregon issued a similar order almost two months ago.

They have alcohol deliveries and weed delivery services here too. I am concerned about deliveries because I grow. So I try to keep a low profile. I also worry about bored teenagers in LA County seeing what I have delivered as motivation for a break in. So I don't use delivery services.

Gavin Newsom issued our stay at home order 3/19. However they were cautioning everyone before that and some places were more receptive than LA County. I think WA, OR and CA have done fairly well over all. I'm glad to see they are taking the initiative to work together about this. The mishandling of this has had tragic consequences.

I see we made the top 5 today on the news.

Pennsylvania joined New York, New Jersey, California and Washington. Wonderful.

They have a new US page too:

I think some places just aren’t testing. In kings county they didn’t even test my wife’s grandpa. They just wrote it off as pneumonia. At least they could have tested him as to quarantine everybody he came into contact with. King’s County has always worried about their image and that’s why they aren’t testing. No test = no cases. Makes them look good. Like they’re doing something right when they’re actual just brushing it under the rug. It doesn’t make sense that every county around Kings is in the red and Kings is in the yellow. I hate Kings “shit kicker” county
