With our coach packed away from the snow and ice until the next trip, we sincerely hope political conditions will allow us to travel east in 2021. Meanwhile, John and Debbie went out to dinner Tuesday night.
We support the fight by the owner of Jimmy's Roadhouse against the unconstitutional continuation of Michigan's social lockdown (now by order of the state Health Department's gubernatorial appointee). His liquor license already has been suspended by another of Whitmer's appointees. These bureaucrats are not elected by We The People. They answer to no one but her.
Enjoy your dinner at a threatened small business near you. Leave a big tip!
p.s.: Jimmy's asks folks to register how far they traveled to his place (and not be identified). Our nearly 1-1/2 hour trip was not the longest this day. Entries show people have come from Traverse City and Ann Arbor, Kalamazoo, Holland.... There were a dozen names on the page when we left just before six. One employee told us it would be an historical document: “We are making history!”
The food was good; we'll be back!

Notes:
The Michigan Mackinac Center's publication is not a right wing fanatic's ravings. The Center is a “think tank” established in the late '80s with the help of former Governor John Engler. CapCon has been one of the little heard voices of reason during this time that the Brys call the Political Pandemic.
Members of Governor Whitmer's administration reportedly have declared that anyone infected by the virus would be lucky to survive. No intelligent, aware individual could say that truthfully, not with a nearly 98% survival rate of those infected.
The Michigan Covid “dashboard” continues to report this virus had killed no one under the age of 20. Ever! Not any of our school children, nor even most entering college in this state. The people who die are those who are old and relatively frail: 89% of all deaths are over age 60. The CDC's figures are similar elsewhere.
