They won't test unless someone has the symptoms. The Doctor may be erring on the side of caution. But the Health Dept may step in and order it because she was working in an area with a bunch of people. Still waiting to hear

I always go back and reread my posts before hitting the send button, because invariably the spelling or a complete word will have changed. Even then, like some cruel hoax, hitting the send button evokes a gremlin that changes things yet again. I feel your pain.

One big difference between this virus and the flu is that there is no effective cure for this virus. None.

If the virus is still running wild and the country is basically shut down in June the Show will the least of our concerns. By that time many of our older members (myself include) might not be here. All of us will probably have buried a family member or close friend. Many members will be having serious financial problems. Tractor shows will not be a priority.

For those of you who insist on going anywhere you want and do whatever you want,stay away from any of your elderly or sickly family members or friends. If you insist on seeing them apologize for killing them. You won't be able to visit them in the hospital or go to their funeral so do it in advance.

Like to hear that Mike..:handgestures-thumbupright:

I fear our big local only GT show in Portage WI in July is going to canceled as well as our other must attend shows. If it does I'm going to have a show here at the ranch. Might just be me and @Achto and a few others in attendance but we'll still have line ups, good eats & booze cruzes! :greetings-clappingyellow:

A dear friend just passed away today (not from coronavirus), there will not be a funeral service or memorial service until the all clear has been sounded, can't even visit his widow as she is in a nursing facility.

I was thinking of doing the same thing, it's been awhile since all the tractors were all out at once. looks like I have the time now to do it.  attendance will probably just be me and the cats

I was thinking the same thing guys.  Maybe a show with all the horses out in the field.  Might even have to camp out with them and have a campfire to keep them warm:icecream:.

Pa. has over 2200 confirmed cases with over 1000 new confirmed cases in the past two days with 22 fatalities. 

 

With 29 cases, our County is under mandatory lock down starting  at 8PM today.

 

We did get some groceries yesterday, but there was no TP, bottled water, or milk.

 

Guess tomorrow we'll boil water and look for some soft leaves.

If this virus mess is still an issue and the big show gets talked about “canceling” could it be possible to move it from June into a later month when everything “calms down”

stay safe my friends

Everyone so concerned about TP. You Know in Many countries they don't worry about TP They Use a wash cloth or there Left Hand(middle east):lol:. When I was Visiting My wife's sister Family Up In Quebec No TP In the house Only a Bidet and a wash cloth & I got the dirtiest looks Like I was unclean from them  when I brought out a role of TP from My truck:ROTF:  Heck the  Romans Used a sponge On a stick. So if I run Out of TP I am Not worried can always use a wash cloth and we do Have a Bidet In the House Last owners Put it In. But I would Have to be desperate to sit On it :D. Funny I am a former snake eater  always had a Case worth Of TP in My Deployment bag:handgestures-thumbupright:

Really look forward to putting some faces with names, checking out all the machines, and cruising the grounds non stop!

As some of you know I am on the board of directors for the WHCC. It is with deep sadness that I can confirm that the board decided to day to cancel the show for 2020. The fair board recemended tat we cancel. They are not letting groups of more then 50 people use the grounds. Adams county is sparsley  populated so it may get released early for larger group meeting, but where you live may not be released by then. We are trying to look out for all of our members and their saftey. We are all gonna miss the show, but these are unpresidented times we are in right now.

 

I'm afraid that there are not going to be many shows this summer and maybe even into the fall.

 

I'm sorry about the spelling errors, I'm working out of town right now and using my wifes old laptop and can't get spell check to work for me. everyone stay safe out there
