One day we were in Winchester and I happened to see this ghost sign on a building near the old train station. The words "Wholesale Grocers" are still pretty clear and I see a Coca Cola logo.
Today I drove to Mom's Organic Market in Herndon because I needed some items that I cannot find near my home. I brought cloth masks with me so I had no problem complying with this sign:Masks required beyond this point.
If you don't have a mask, use a t-shirt or a scarf.
If you forgot your mask - we may be able to provide you with a (1) disposable mask. Just ask and we will do our best to accommodate.
Protect our employees: Wear a mask.
The remaining pictures are from our Mother's Day drive to Page County. This is a fire road/hiking trail leading into Shenandoah National Park. It is gated off, as usual, with a recently added sign that prohibits even hikers from entering.
"Closure NoticeNo Park Entry
Do Not Enter.
As a public health precaution this trailhead and parking lot are temporarily closed."
The park service is currently looking into a phased re-opening. They plan to open entrances, rest rooms, and some trails. Campgrounds and picnic areas will remain closed until it is considered safe to reopen them.
Trailheads outside the park (like this one) will not open yet due to concerns of local officials about overcrowding and parking.
Nice photos. Local town parks are still closed here in Connecticut, but most state parks were kept open, with social distancing required. Masks required at places like grocery stores, where social distancing can't be maintained.
ReplyDelete...Linda you found a wonderful ghost from the past! Too many people don't understand that they may become a ghost if they don't wear a mask! Thanks for stopping by, stay safe.
ReplyDeleteLove finding those old building signs...back before neon ever came on the scene. Some of our trails have opened. But parking is limited.
ReplyDeletei understand a lot of the closures, but parks and beaches, i wish i understood that!!
ReplyDeletethe first building is gorgeous, i really like that brick!!!
It's such a shame the parks have to be closed. The world has changed so much these last few months.
ReplyDeleteI love that ghost sign. Wearing a mask is being smart and respectful to others. Have a wonderful weekend, Linda.
ReplyDeleteLove the blue sky in your third photograph.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Phased reopenings seem to be the case here.
