Why would I have to stay out of Alabama?  You obviously have not been reading what I write or like RHH you simply want to misrepresent what I am saying.  I will wear a mask when it is required as I have from the beginning.  I wore one today to get my annual mole patrol done...no whack a mole this year thank goodness.  

Here is what the mask mandate says from the https://governor.alabama.gov/assets/2020/07/Coronavirus.MaskOrderFAQ.0720na.pdf.

You have to wear a mask when you are in public and in close contact with other people. Specifically, the order says to wear a mask when you are within six feet of a person from another household in any of the following places: (a) an indoor space open to the public; (b) a vehicle operated by a transportation service; and (c) an outdoor public space where ten or more people are gathered.

And it specifically exempts people on the lake so I am golden!  

Even though I don't think masks are effective these measures seem reasonable to me and I'll follow them when I need to.  And I can assure you that I will continue to social distance, wash my hands, use hand sanitizer, etc. diligently because they actually work. 

I have stated this from the beginning so please do us all a favor and stop misrepresenting what I wrote and making silly statements like I won't come to Alabama.  I'll be there this weekend with my oldest son and a group of his friends.  Can't wait!  See you at mass on Sunday morning?
