Our Governor allowed the beaches to re-open this weekend, with restrictions. The idea is to use them only for swimming, running, surfing, walking, biking, fishing and exercising pets. Sunbathing and gathering in groups is not allowed (no beach towels or chairs) and he appealed to people to maintain social distancing. The hours are restricted to 6 am - 11 am. Then again at 5 pm to 8 pm. (morning and evening walks basically) He's left the final decision (to open) up to local mayors and authorities. I'm not sure how it'll go, but it's a controlled start I guess. He did order schools to remain closed for the remainder of the academic year.

I'm sure the "stupid Floridians" memes will start popping up immediately by the haters ... but what'cha gonna do?
