 My cousin owns the general store in Stockholm, Maine (population 800 
something) and says a lot of the older folks are nervous to go to Florida for 
the winter. Arostook county has very few COVID cases, but a lot of the 
snowbirds spend the summer in cottages that would never make it through a 
northern Maine winter.He says some of the folks that have real houses have laid 
in firewood and are going to try it. He hopes that having those folks will 
offset the loss of revenue from fewer (if any) snowmobilers.

When the engine blew in my 26kmi Chevy in September, the flatbed driver 
took me and my shorthaired pointer in the cab, no masks.


Around here, we had a big upswing in boating and SxS ORVs, and I believe 
off road motorcycles. Dealership floors were devoid of boats nationwide. 
So I've been expecting a huge season for snowmobiling, but I don't know 
if that translates to a huge season for snowmobiler travel to Da UP.___

With the "surge" Maine is getting more strict. With only 67,000 people in the 
county the local snowmobilers don't really support the program all that much.

It's like anything in life. You look at the relative risks and make a
decision. Do you want to take a vaccine that was rushed through
development and testing in 10 months, a vaccine for which the
manufacturers have been granted exemption from liability? Maybe if
you're in a high risk category due to age or other health issues, you
feel that it is the lower risk option. If you're younger and healthy,
maybe you take a wait and see position.

I have yet to hear how the AK snowbirds are going to survive.  Most came back 
with their home on wheels, but will not be able to go south, since Canada will 
not open borders until next year.  Either way, the provincial borders are shut 
for Yukon, BC, and NWT.

None of the big pharma are able to produce in quantities required to have 
statistically significant impact.  UK was all excited about maybe using their 5 
million doses, which could show up late spring 2021, to infect a couple million 
frail folks (two dose).  

Maybe when there are half a dozen billion doses available, we will know if the 
cures are worse than the plague.  That should be long after the WRD has swept 
through the population and herd immunity is common.
