Just booked a biz trip to Tokyo and Australia for early September.

Feels great to get back to normal.

Australia's borders are closed to international travel. Might be lifted by September, but no assurance of that. They really don't want to risk their population's health, even if you don't care about that.

Cases and deaths have been spiking in many places throughout the world and are the worst since the pandemic started.

The only place things are back to normal are in your head.

The vaccines are out. CDC and NYTs finally said what everyone with a brain already knew, it's extremely difficult to get Covid outside and there is no need to wear a mask outside.

Why are you still rooting for the pandemic? Oh, and hell yes things are getting back to normal. Warning, this might make your head explode.

They are rooting for the pandemic because some people traffic in fear and misery. It provides a sense of power they otherwise never experience. Very sad.

On a positive note, The San Luis Rio Colorado port of entry has resumed 24/7 traffic southbound. Previously during the pandemic it was closed from 10PM - 6AM

Things are looking up!

California is 57. NY, Michigan at or above FL's level with 1/3 the freedom.

This thing is nearly over. You should be happy. Get out and live life!

As a newish member I'll say the signal/noise ratio here is pretty bad. I'm part of several online communities and they all have their issues, but the tenor of this place makes me reluctant to jump in a lot.

I've had conversations and arguments, political and philosophical with a wide range of characters online ranging back to the days of usenet. This is hardly the worst, but it's well below the median.

I'm working on a couple of baja projects and would love to have some more experienced knowledge to pull from. There really isn't much good out there. I think the knowledge is here, it would be nice if you could get to it without a filter.

Start some Baja related threads. You'll get plenty of helpful info and a kind reception.
