Lots of back and forth about out of state second home owners coming up. Most of the 2nd homeowners in the area are from the Boston area. IMO they own it and should be able to provide shelter for their family if they wish. I also think if they do decide to use their 2nd home they should take precautions and get everything they need for a two week quarantine before leaving their primary residence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really is a big clusterfuck of an order.

So its like nothing has changed for them, show up to work or dont' get paid. And get to be exposed to everyone and their brother. Meanwhile Mainers are harassing people with out of state plates, as if they have the right to restrict travel. And I"m sure that's only one example of thousands across the country.

MAINTAHDS have been doing that for 40 years. That's why I hate MAINTAHDS with a passion. Of course not all mainahs are bad, but WAY TOO MANY ARE!!!! It's not really xenophobia, it's just being bastards. That's what they are, big rough bastards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That park I was at in Florida was full of people from the Michigan UP. They were all staying for a party yesterday and leaving tomorrow to head home. The wife's parents left this morning for Ontario. They made it to South Carolina. 2 more days before they are home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
