Has anyone made a reservation for a group of six (or more) and compared the price per person between two standard cabins vs. the Captain suite? Looking at four adults and two teens.

Our 14 year old will be getting it as soon as she’s eligible. (Cases in children in our area are also getting quite high and we know multiple long haulers.) She also has a history of respiratory issues that have resolved as she’s gotten older, but it makes me worry. I agree that the...

You should really check your “facts”. https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/jun/16/instagram-posts/no-photo-doesnt-show-woman-george-floyd-allegedly-/

We lived in Kalamazoo for several years and visit semi-regularly. There are plenty of fine hotels there. We generally stay near the airport, but there are many options, including everything listed above.

THIS. We have kids in our (NY) school sneaking to out of state wrestling! Indoors, right on top of each other unmasked wrestling. Not supposed to be allowed, but they are training together and traveling to hot spots to compete. Meanwhile I’m trying to teach music 12 feet apart and my kid can’t...

We have also loved Raddish for a few years now. Most of the recipes have been good, I like that it doesn’t come with the food, the instructional materials are great and I appreciate the representation of kids in the illustrations. The tools that come with are generally very good quality - I...

Yep - I have a friend who teaches at Hartwick and they are livid. Stricter plan than Oneonta, very few cases, but because they are in the same county they are now having to change their plan because of the mess next door.

Another NYer - we just got back from a couple of nice days at Lake Placid. (Replaced our usual out of state vacation for the same reasons.) Good mix of options of things to do.

Interesting! The NJArtsEd webinar presenter sharing the preliminary results specifically talked about how pleasantly surprised they were at the flute data! I’ll have to watch the interviews later. I have only heard from the oboist who was in the study - they said that the oboe wound up spreading...

The most recent flute data actually looks surprisingly good. Ask your band Director about the NFHS study out of UC-Boulder. Not all results are in yet, but they were very surprised by how low the aerosol spread was for flute. (Previous studies had not measured actual aerosols from a flute, they...

Swung on a trapeze Flown in a small airplane (a lot!) Sung on stage at the Apollo Lived states away from any family members Eaten and liked about a million different foods that I like now (I was a picky eater and my family did not have adventurous palates.)

I’m involved on working on the plans for our school. We are hoping for a combination hybrid/face to face, with a fully remote option available for the small percentage of our families who have said they need/want it, but it will depend on the governor. My current intention is to send my child...

I assume you’re talking about the Fredrick Douglass statue in Rochester, NY? There’s been no motive found in that one yet, but that last time it was torn down it was by two white college students. It got national news airtime this time because of other statues but I don’t think anyone around...

I know multiple people. Two middle aged people who were asymptomatic and only found out through positive tests related to work. Two older teens who had mild symptoms. One middle aged person who had it early on (tested positive) and still has major breathing and stamina issues months later. Two...

VT is allowing testing to avoid their travel restrictions. Depending on where you are coming from, you may be required to do a 14 day quarantine either at your home before traveling or upon arrival in VT. You can substitute a 7 day quarantine followed by a negative test.

That is simply not true. Immunocompromised people have worn masks at doctors’ instructions for a long time. A family member of mine was directed to wear one (if she had to go out in public) while on chemo for a blood cancer back in the early 90’s. This was common practice in that oncology ward...

This makes sense to me: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/03/26/dont-panic-about-shopping-getting-delivery-or-accepting-packages/

Our school has been told that if we close temporarily, teachers will continue to be paid (we are also expected to be doing online teaching during that time.) I assume maintenance will be brought in to deep clean and will also be paid accordingly. Food workers, secretaries and other hourly...

Upstate NY. Local schools are making plans just in case and collaborating across districts but nothing actually happening at the moment. We also have no local confirmed cases right now.

Family of 3: We shop at a wholesale club every couple of months and get things like Toilet paper and paper towel (stored in laundry room) Bulk snacks like peanuts/trail mix for hypoglycemic DH family who keeps them stashed at home, work, car, etc. Large size laundry detergent Some toiletries...
