Hopefully you've seen my post on Wednesday about our drive up to Arlington from our winter HQ. Interstate 95 was alternately crowded, plagued by trucks, and NOT -- and, notably, there were many hundreds of Canadians in giant RVs returning to their summer homes.
I didn't talk to any of them (you can guess why), but I theorize that many had deliberately stayed in FL -- out of uncertainty until they concluded en masse that Canada was a better refuge. (D'uh!)
(I doubt yesterday's mutual closing of the US/CA border was a factor in their decidr ing -- since returning Can citizens presumably can still cross, AND there are shorter lines.)
I hope you gentle readers are all safe and well "hunkered down." Also, I extend this wish to everyone else, including all
those plucky Canadians.
