Disney World has just announced they will start taking reservations for June 1st.

@Stereoguy You should have plenty of time in retirement when this is over and becomes an annual issue of a vaccination. If you take the northern route in fall, you may have to deal with September snowfalls in the mountains and possibly the northern plains. It would be better to leave earlier to make sure snowy weather doesn't close some of the locations you want to go to. Make sure you leave plenty of time for the southwest deserts. It is an acquired taste for easterners, but no one I have ever introduced to the four deserts has regretted it.

@Stereoguy it’s a couple of months away so who knows but I think it’s wishful thinking we haven’t even peaked yet. That won’t be for a while and then it will take a while before we can even think we stand a chance of not getting sick.

@Chevy454 Oh come on...Okie means someone from Oklahoma. You didn't know that? 😉

Yea I really did, but living in Florida I hear it all the time too. I know Okies, Sooners!!@OkieNTheHouse

@Chevy454 Yep!

@Harriet03 yup. I suspect they'll be up and running soon.

hopefully we're about to hit the peak soon.

my concern is that if they open too soon (they get so many international visitors) that we might get another recurrence.

@Pretzel Not a chance!!

@Stereoguy As heartless as this sounds, there will be a fall in numbers as the weak die and the rest gradually become immume, until a vaccine is found. That is just how it works.

@whowasthatmaskedman Even that is just a guess since there is a possibility that some people have been infected with covid 19 multiple times. If that turns out to be right a vaccine might be the only thing that ends this.

@Stereoguy nice RV. My brother and his wife spent the winter in Florida. Now they are headed back to Wisconsin. They have ran into a problem. All the state operated campgrounds in Illinois are closed due to the virus. The privately owned ones are full. So they are setting in a campground in Eva, TN, near Camden until they can find someplace to stay. They can not drive all the way home in one day.

@Stereoguy The parks are the main source of their income.

@Stereoguy yes

@Stereoguy Yup in Publix I know

@Degbeme There is optimism, and there is stupidity (fueled by Disney corporate greed). No one in their right mind would book a vacation to such an environment that would embody the antithesis of social distancing.

@Stereoguy Yea. Early May???
