asking for money. Way too close.

I also saw a few too many cars parked outside Union Market when I walked by. They do offer pickup and delivery for people who like to pay the high prices for those artisanal meats and cheeses. There's no reason to go in.

I deliberately scope out our smaller grocers and go inside only when there are relatively few people in there. I steer clear of the big stores right now.

so now just Giant in Calvert County, not very busy, plenty room between people and cars, and happily I don't need toilet paper!
