My mule came in! Vaccine finally arrived in my little corner in Az.

We got notice at 2:30 yesterday that Jeannie and I could get our first shots at 3:30.
So we drove into town to the only high school in our town. I must say that the members of the
local fire department were well organized and the line moved quickly. We got the Moderna
vaccine and sat at desks in the gym for our 15 minute observation period, and then celebrated
with pizza and wings from Vinny's, a good place owned by an old friend.
And a friend came over and fixed the ignition and my truck, and another bought $600 worth of
scaffolding from me. A very good day. Now I'm going to check my lottery numbers.

I'm landlocked here, so no ships can come in.

Monday. I can deal with the virus better than I can with people who say "no one saw it coming."
