COVID 19, 11 WARD AVENUE

Red winged blackbird

It was a great morning to be out!  We started at 8, with mostly clear skies, 53 degrees and just a slight breeze.

A minus tide (-1.7') made for good walking and almost good running along the water's edge.  It's always fun to search for shells and whatever else the tide may have left exposed.

Present today:  Cheryl N., Neil, Gay, Mark, Fran, Deb, Sam, Charlene, Ron, Toni, Joe, John, Scott, Bob, Shari, Nancy and Tom (17).

Thanks, John, for all of today's photos.  

This was our 13th run/walk/bike since the Shelter In Place Order  was announced.  Things  
are beginning to normalize.  We all keep our masks ready or already on our faces.  We are fortunate to have the Coastal Trail.  Next week, we will again start 

Sam!

NEXT SUNDAY, JUNE 14TH, 8:00 A.M.,  GROUP RUN, WALK AND BIKE, COASTAL TRAIL - MIDDLE
(behind the Fort Bragg Fire Station).

County Shelter in Place Order continues, pertinent section and current revision copied below:

Allowed: 

• Outdoor Recreation may now be initiated from within a 50 mile drive of one’s residence taking into account the new provisions in the  Facial Covering Order
• When engaging in recreational activities in public, it is recommended that everyone bring a facial covering with them in a safe and accessible location and wear that where it is difficult to comply with social distancing requirements. However, the Order clarifies that for some public recreational activities which cause people to more forcefully expel airborne particles, the six feet social distance requirement may not be enough and may call for additional measures.

EVERY TUESDAY AND THURSDAY, GROUP RUN AND WALK @ 7:30 A.M.,   for now, we're starting behind the Fort Bragg Fire Station and using the Coastal Trail - Middle access on Tuesdays.  On Thursdays, we are starting at Harvest Market at Mendosa's, Mendocino.
