I'm glad I bought some ice cream a while back, then. I guess with July 4 weekend, people like their cold desserts! How hot is it where you are? It's getting nasty hot and humid where I am. At least I own an ice cream maker, if things got really bad.

It's just so disturbing what is happening in meat packing plants across the country. And prisons are particularly hit hard, too. According to today's NY Times numbers, a Marion, Ohio correctional facility has had a total of over 2,400 cases. I can understand how such a place would be a breeding ground for virus, but I wonder how hard some of these places have even tried to curb it. The list of prisons, meat packing places, and nursing home clusters cases goes on and on. I even saw that Trenton Psychiatric Hospital in Trenton, NJ (my state's capital) has had 279 total cases. Trenton Psych is not exactly where most want to go. It's usually where people with little money or the longest term severe illnesses go. I know a couple people who've been there.
