I rode the bike to the beach this morning, still isolated and
quarantined by proximity (although a mama and baby dolphin were feeding
right in front of me, maybe 15-20ft away, ignoring the signs telling us
to keep our distance), and rode by the grocery store down the road. I
did not go in but from the parking lot and people coming and going it
appeared to a normal day, although I noticed the patrons not to be too
concerned about touching carts and such, which I found a bit strange. I
have no compelling reason to go any time soon but if I do will take some
neoprene gloves to wear while I go about my bidness then toss them or
wash them or something.
Costco reports this morning suggested normalcy of patrons also, but no
report on stocks of various things. Apparently they had a sign up the
other day looking for more help given how busy they are, which would be
good for those now displaced from the workforce.

Went to my local WW this morning at opening time. About 20 people in line, all
very orderly and pleasant. I will say that I’ve not seen anything that
indicated panic or unpleasantness among the masses when I’ve been out.
Plenty of produce, although I did not wander through the department to see if
there were spuds. From just passing by I saw plenty of fruits and vegetables
and little to no open shelf space.
Dry goods appeared to be much the same.
Didn’t look at snack foods, drinks, bread or meat.
Dairy was fairly full, although there was no skim milk, only 2% and whole, but
lots of it. Meant to look at eggs but in an effort to not impede others I moved
along pretty quickly.
NO paper products. Nothing. I overheard a number of people fretting and heading
back out to go to other stores, apparently making the rounds to find things.
Other than the lack of paper products, things didn’t appear to be too out of
whack.
