THE DINER'S OPEN


I don't get around to STL's neighborhoods enough. The other day I took a walk down the main street of Maplewood, an older (by our standards) town adjacent to the city proper. You couldn't tell the difference if you crossed the line. The main drag, Manchester Road, has everything from edgy shops to restaurants all along the spectrum to a major supermarket. Some eateries still provide only carry out, others have outdoor dining and a few invite patrons inside. I saw little about spacing and how many people were allowed at a time.

Tiffany's Diner was certainly open for business without rules posted. The single customer was not wearing a mask  There were not many people on the street but most of them were.

As you probably know, Arizona is a red state so we've seen many little battles going on about opening up and wearing masks. A friend of mine actually witnessed a confrontation in a grocery store where some maskless guy was telling an employee wearing a mask how stupid it was because this is all a hoax to hurt DJT. Arrgh! Insanity.

Only takeaways are open here plus of course, grocery stores. Masks are not mandatory but social distancing is a must.

I'm staying away from everything these days. And I have bought a few face masks.

Those barstools are a rarity here.
