  3. This signed statement should be mandatory for anyone deciding to ignore the stay at home advice That way they won’t overload the medical facilities at their destination Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  4. Looks like Mother Nature has taken care of social distancing for the next few days lol Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  5. Whatever it takes It’s not going to get better till people stop spreading it with their I don’t care attitude Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  6. Not many people travel 3 hours from PA or Joisey to play golf. The problem with the launches are the people coming from all over and bringing Covid or taking Covid. Stay home get this over with Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  7. So much for shelter in place Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  8. I’m glad I’m not the only one staring at my boat in the driveway. Lol It’s my belief that a lot of the reason for the Lake O launches being closed is to stop the influx of out of the area boats / fisher people. Before they got the barricades up , it was a circus The sooner we stop the spread of the virus , the sooner we will get back to fishing. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  9. Or maybe the twilight zone Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  10. I hear u on H1N1 there are major differences between that and Covid. Swine flu was an influenza. There was some immunity to the swine flu. Covid is not an influenza , we have no immunity to this virus This one has killed 146000 people ( at least ) worldwide in a few weeks. Swine flu killed 171000 worldwide in a year. You do the math I’m no expert , but I’m going to follow the guidelines of the people who are experts Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  11. Nope. You won’t be driving to ANY Canadian provinces any time soon. You can drive to 3 states , but you shouldn’t. This virus is new. It’s a constantly changing scenario. Nobody has EVER dealt with something like this too soon to tell if Sweden’s answer is the right one. We are erring on the side of caution I’m all in on that Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

  14. Here’s pics of the Hartford , a 137 ft schooner that was lost in Lake O 125 years ago. The hull washed up on the beach just south of the Sandy pond inlet over the winter. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  15. Wow. We got down to 28 in Watertown. I’d be concerned at 14 Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  16. I don’t worry about my mercruiser sterndrive / engine until it gets below 20 The engine is covered and that provides insulation never had a problem in 30 years. Knock wood. Lol Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  17. I need to clarify this post. I’m not an RN. I copied it from a friends post she is the hero. These people stare the beast in the eye every day they need and deserve our Thanks and prayers Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  18. Up until now, I have been extremely silent on my personal feelings on how the COVID-19 pandemic is being handled by the public. But I feel like after the things I saw, both in person and on social media, and heard over the last few days, especially yesterday, I can’t be quiet anymore. Yesterday, after finishing my weekend shifts at University of Pennsylvania Hospital in Philly, I was driving home to my parent’s house. I was passing Boat House Row and the trail on the river by Kelly Drive. The amount of people I saw on this trail brought me to tears, I’m not joking I literally started to cry on 76 in my car still in my scrubs. I had to have passed over 100 people on this trail, all within arms distance of each other, most without any sort of mask on. I don’t care that it was 70 degrees in Philly yesterday. I don’t care that you’re “going crazy” inside your house. I don’t care that yesterday was Easter and you wanted to see distance relatives. My colleagues, in all departments at all healthcare facilities, and I go to work for shifts ranging from 8-24 hours long and work directly with COVID positive patients. We see how devastating this disease is first hand. We are the only people who actually see it at its worst since these poor patients can’t have family come and see them. No visitors to ANY patient in the hospital, including the non-COVID floors. We come home and have serious talks with our loved ones about how we’re going to handle this as a household. My parents and I literally had a conversation last week about how they are willing to risk contracting the virus, and potentially dying, in order for me to be home with them when I’m not working. My roommate in Philly who is a nurse has been staying with people she works with to not bring it home. You assholes who think you’re above this are bike riding on a trail to “clear your head”. The most exercise some of you have seen in 10+ years. You’re going to friend’s/families’ houses and then going back to your own, breaking your quarantine and risking everyone around you. And bragging about it by posting on social media that you’re with people who aren’t in your household, at a house that isn’t yours. Going to Target and Walmart to just get out of the house, contaminating everything in the store and putting others at risk. Going to a freaking church service on a roof when they are broadcasting masses on TV that you don’t have to leave your home for. YOU are the reason this quarantine is as long as it is. YOU are the reason people are getting sick and dying. YOU are the reason so many of my friends (and myself) haven’t seen their parents, siblings, kids, grandparents in over a month. NOT the government. I am absolutely BEGGING everyone to stay inside. If it is not essential to your survival, please don’t leave your house. You‘ll live not exercising outside for a few months, some of you who have been going outside have been preparing your whole lives for that, don’t start now. Take it seriously now, don’t wait until someone you love is affected to start caring. You want to post “thank you health heroes” on your social media? How about you actually give a rats ass about us and stay inside. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  19. You’re a genius in your own mind I would really like to tell you what I think of your opinion , but Blueye would bar me from the forum. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

  21. Thank you Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  22. That is still a 3 hour trip. You are traveling through populations , stopping for gas , snacks , bathroom breaks. That is against everything that is being asked of us. You may bring corona or catch corona , but either way you risk spreading it and maybe killing people. If you want to jump off the bridge, that’s your business. But when you risk taking my family with you , that’s my business. Stay home Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  23. You would be right if you said a friend took and sent the pic. I have been to Sam’s club and Wally World a totol of once in 3 weeks. I went to my church and picked up palms. I’ve worked on my boat in my yard on nice days. All alone. The boat is ready to go. But it’s going to sit there till this is over. Thanks for your concern Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  24. Mexico point this AM Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
