I'm planning a road trip from Sydney area toward Brisbane. Would rather take an inland route and visit as many National Parks as we can. We're avid hikers & have a camper van so good to sleep anywhere in a pinch. What would your 10-12 day route be?!

2023.06.08 10:01 Dreamer352 They Were Looking
John was bored one night and decided to get to work on something. He didn't know what exactly to do, so he decided to write a story since writing was one of his hobbies. However, John was so bored that he didn't even know what to write about, so that's when he gave up and went right back to bed staring at his vinyl record copy of The Best of Bread resting on his turntable. He was too lazy to at least make an attempt to drop the needle on the record and listen to some music. Instead, he just stared at the ceiling desperately wanting to do something great, but lacking the energy and motivation to do so; he needed some kind of incentive... John suddenly jolted not realizing that he had dosed off, so he decided to call it a night and close his eyes for good till morning. It was 12:37am...
Twisting, turning, and mumbling, John finally woke up not feeling too well, but it was only 2:00am. He stumbled to the bathroom like a blind drunk man to pee and wash his face. He was cold and shivering like a worried puppy trying to shake off the unpleasant dream that he woke from. After he washes his hands, he stares at himself in the mirror recalling the dream he just had...
A white middle aged man was mowing a lawn. The lawn looked like a small version of John's childhood home in Jonesborough Tennessee. The man was wearing a beige straw hat and had a smirk on his face while constantly wiping his sweat. There was no one else around, just the man mowing the lawn. There was something cold and unwelcoming about the lawn mowing man's presence. He never made eye contact with John, yet John felt as though he was looking at him. "But how?" John whispered to himself... The more John wondered that question to himself, the more hostile the presence of the lawnmowing man became. Still, the man never batted an eye at John, but gave the feeling as though he knew everything about John and was watching him like a Hawk... The lawn mowing man's smirk grew larger, more sweat began to pour from his face as he violently swatted his hands across his sunburnt forehead... Suddenly the ambience became louder and louder which resembled a chaotic orchestral crescendo and...
John suddenly snaps back to reality while still gazing at himself in the mirror; he smirks and tries to laugh the dream away, but there was just something so unsettling about the dream that words just couldn't describe. John desperately wanted to forget about the dream and was too scared to go back to bed fearing that the dream may reappear. He gets back in bed and stares at the ceiling once again but accidentally doses off...
John finally sleeps well until morning when he wakes up to briefly eat some cereal and then gets back in bed realizing he doesn't work on Saturdays... It was dark and raining, but no thunder or lighting, just rain. John hears the sound of a lawnmower revving. It comes in and out of audible range. He rolls out of bed like lazy lion and peeks out of the window only to see the lawnmowing man once again. This time however, the lawnmowing man waves with a normal looking smile on his face while politely hollering, "Hi John! How are ya?"
John suddenly springs upward on his bed like a petrified deer unable to move and process what's going on! "Oh crap, it's 2:00pm!" John says to himself feeling like the end of the world is at hand. John's mind slowly starts to wake up as he begins to relax remembering that he doesn't work on Saturdays. But nothing seemed to be able to ease him away from that dreadful dream. Nothing he did could shake that feeling off, it was almost as though the dream really did happen in some unearthly dimension or realm that the human spirit goes to while slumbering... But there it was again, the sound of the lawnmower slowly going in and out of audible range... John chuckles realizing that the active lawnmowing team outside was the reason he dreamed of a lawnmower in his dream... But what about the first dream? he thought to himself...
It was a beautiful sunny day and John wanted to take advantage of the day while also hoping to forget about the unpleasant dream he had. He ate a quick meal and dressed himself for an adventure to the grocery store. He had to pee before leaving, so he went to the bathroom to take care of business... While washing his hands, he stares at himself in the mirror and chuckles again trying to convince himself that it was just a normal dream. "It was literally just a dream about a man mowing the lawn, I mean how is that scary?" he said. "I mean, maybe I was feeling a little sick and that's why such a normal dream felt so terrifying. Oh well, it's normal. Let's go get some groceries and ice cream so that I can focus on that story I want to try to write this time tonight!"
John hits the road in his silver 2012 Mustang leaving nothing but dust and bad bad dreams behind. As he's driving through a suburban area, he notices a man in a beige straw hat mowing their lawn... John chuckles and says, "Haha, see? Totally normal!" John finally arrives at the local grocery store... John parks his Mustang when the sky suddenly turns grey as rush of pale clouds dim the skies. The grocery store looked rather ghostly and depressing. There were many old looking cars that resembled a 2002 Toyota Camry, some with rusting canopies and dirty hubcaps. Out in the distance of the lot, there was a lawnmowing team truck branded with a decal that read Straw Hat Lawncare...
John made his way into the the grocery store and felt a bitter welcome from everyone inside. Nobody glanced at John. Everyone in the store looked like depressed fish passing by each other. There was a Hispanic family talking Spanish. The father was wearing a green jersey and the mother was sporting a pink sweater with grey sweatpants. Their kids were following along while randomly touching items. John was Hispanic as well, but felt no connection around this family. That's when John started to notice that nobody made eye contact with him, even when he said "excuse me" to reach for something. Not the employees, not the local sheriff, not the old lady looking at flowers, nobody... Not that John wanted to be looked at or noticed, but there was something odd about this, almost as if everybody was purposefully told not to make any kind of contact with him. It was a feeling that was hard to explain.
John quickly grabs some groceries to rush over to checkout to test if the cashier would at least say hello or something. But to John's disappointment, the cashier did not even greet John when he set his items down on the checkout countertop. The conveyor belt squeaks every time it moves; it's movement seems so lifeless, just like the cashier... Still, no eye contact whatsoever, not even if he tried to make conversation. The cashier just looked down the whole time. John started to panic inside, something just didn't feel right. It's not all in my head! John thought to himself... John grabs his groceries and heads for the exit when he notices a dirty looking man wearing beige straw hat smoking a cigarette. This man happened to be the only person that glanced at John, but it wasn't a pleasant glance. The man had a grim look on his face... John started to get the feeling that everybody was on to him, and that even the people who were ignoring him were actually very aware of his presence.
John was a good guy, not a saint, but a good-hearted person. He's never caused any harm to anyone and has always been a respectful gentlemen. But why? Why does it feel like these people hate me for no reason? John thought to himself again. Although John was physically being ignored, he got the feeling that everybody was actually looking at him... John quickly paces towards his Mustang. His heart throbbing, muscles tightening, jaw clenching, head aching; John starts his car and glances around. He looks out his right window and sees the dull grocery store. He looks straight ahead and sees the lawnmowing team truck. He looks to his left and sees a man with a beige straw hat right next to the window. The man knocks looking like he was begging for money. John being good hearted lowers the window but the man speaks before John could do anything, "Your back tire is flat!" The man kept repeating the same phrase over and over as if having a flat tire was bad luck. The man reeked of whiskey and tabaco, he had no front teeth and looked like he was wired on methamphetamine or something. "Come on out here and look!" the man exclaimed. "That tire's lookin bad man, you gotta get that fixed. You got one of them spares?" "Yeah, I got a spare." John said. "I got this, don't worry about me." "OF COURSE I'm gon worry bout you brother, that's what we do round here!"
The man starts telling a story about his brother Phil who had a flat tire because he was being shot at by some thugs. The man's story seems to go on forever and John starts to tune out. John glances out in the distance over the man's shoulder; the man's voice begins to get muddled as John focuses on someone getting out of the lawnmowing team truck in the distance. His heart starts to race when he sees another man with a beige straw hat stepping out of the car, except this time, John felt a very hostile vibration. The man in the distance puffed a cloud of smoke when he quickly glanced towards John's way with an evil look on his face... John looks behind and sees another man with a beige straw hat just like the one from his dream. Oddly enough, this man waved and shouted, "Hello! Need some help?"
John's heart started to pound and he almost felt like fainting. Maybe it's just my anxiety. "I've got to go!" John told the whiskey breathed man and cranked on his Mustang. He peeled out of the parking lot like a rabbit fearing for it's life. He could still hear the whiskey breathed man crying, "Hey man! I just wanted to help!" The whiskey breathed man kept crying, "I just wanted to help man! I JUST WANTED TO HELP!!" Tears rolling down his face, down his now sad face, "I just wanted to help you DOOD!! Why? WHY this gotta happen to me man? WHY! Why man? Come on! I JUST WANTED TO HELP!! I just wanted to help! Ahh!! AHHH!!!"
John finally arrived back home and hurried out of his car into his house... Suddenly everything was quiet... Too quiet... Finally, peace. I just have to rest and forget about that dream I had. It's ok, that whiskey breathed man was just really high on meth, he didn't hurt me. I was just really freaked out, that's all. I hope that man will be alright. I feel kind of bad, I didn't want to leave him there all alone. He looked like he was a hurting man, could've used a little company. No, what am I thinking? He was just high. Why should I trust some random meth-head like that? Awe, he's alright. He's cool... I'm tired now, I'm just going to relax and see if I can start that story! Yeah, that'll cheer me up! It's just life, weird stuff happens! But what about... No, forget it... But why was I seeing men with beige straw hats all day like the man in my dream? Nah, I'm overthinking, it was just a hot sunny day today, duh... But what about all of those grim looking people at the store? I felt like they were on to me, like they were all in on it. Oh crap! Maybe they know about my dream! No way, that's not possible... But what if dreams really are connected to real-life? I mean, it's part of life after all... Nah, that's too weird, it's all in my head...
Suddenly, the sound of a 4-stroke engine starts revving... Grass? At this time? It's late evening. John crawls over to his window and sees a man in a beige straw hat cutting the neighbors lawn... "Ahh!!" John jolts upwards biting his nails. He crawls back to his bed and tries to once again justify what's happening... Suddenly, he smells cigarette smoke. "What's that smell?" he says... He slowly glances at a dirty light blue uniform and before he could make out what it is, a raspy voice 'declares, "WE"RE WATCHING YOU..." Another voice says, "WE'RE LOOKING AT YOU, HAPPY NOW?" Another voice answers that one, "LOOK WHAT YOU DID TO DALE JERK! AH HAHA!" "YEAH, YOU'RE SO MEAN FOR LEAVING HIM BEHIND!" "DALE ERA UN BUEN HOMBRE..." Said a Spanish voice...
John slowly looked up and saw an extremely pale faced version of the cashier from the grocery store and still not making eye contact, but three inches away from John saying, "Hi honey, how are ya?" and then repeats the phrase over again, "I SAID HOW ARE YA HONEY? WHAT, CAT GOTCHA TONGUE? WELL I'LL FEED IT TO MUH CATS WHEN I GET HOME THEN! BET CHU DON'T HAVE THE DECENCY TO HELP OUT DALE WITH A LITTLE BIT OF FOOD, DO YA?" She kept shouting at John three inches away while still not making eye contact. "SO? HOW YA DOING HONEY? FIND EVERYTHING YA NEED? HAHAHAHA! YOU SU................
John wakes up again... It's 2:00am. Everything is quiet. Desperately trying to forget the bad dreams and the strange day at the grocery store, he finally decides to drop the needle on the Best of Bread vinyl record. The music is soothing. He begins to drift into slumber once again.
John sleeps in and wakes up at 2:00pm on Sunday, he doesn't work on Sunday's either. John realizes he never got the groceries that he actually needed, so he makes his way to the grocery store once again. on another sunny day. He pulls into the parking lot, but this time they sky stays sunny and blue. The lawn mowing team truck is gone. John makes his way inside the grocery store. This time, a jolly old man greets him as he walks in. "How are you doing young man?" Says the old man. "Fine, thank you." John replies. Today, everybody was acknowledging John and making him feel welcome. Lots of smiles and hellos. There was even another Hispanic family who smiled at John while crossing paths. Even the children seemed happy. Hmm, too suspicious. It's almost like they're watching me and know what happened yesterday.
John grabbed all the items he needed and headed for checkout. He approached the counter and was greeted by the same cashier from last time. This time she actually speaks to John... "Hey honey, how are ya?" Says the cashier with a cute smile. "Great, how are you? John replies. "Oh honey, I had such a busy day yesterday! First I had to go see my doctor because of my back pain, then my car ran out of gas and I had to tell my hubby to help me out. Then he starts going off on me about how these lawn mowing guys woke him up at 5 in the mornin' and I told him, honey, they just doin' they job. Oh honey, today is much better, it's a beautiful day and my back feels better." Something about this doesn't seem right... She knows... She knows and she's playing around with me... Everybody is... No, I'm just being paranoid. Forget it, today is a great day!
John makes his way back to his mustang with a kart full of groceries... "HEY DOOD!!" suddenly screams the whiskey breathed man from behind. "Whoa man, you scared me!" Says John. "Oh I'm sorry man, didn't mean to startle ya.. Hey, I noticed you got a spare tire now. Good job buddy! Hey listen man, I'm feeling happy today a.. a.. and I just want to give you my hat!" John looks at the beige straw hat... "Are you sure?" John asks. "Yeah man, go on and take it, it's time I let go of somethings in life. I'm trying to start a new life man and stay away from theses drugs out here man. You go on an take it, it has good luck man!" John accepts and takes the hat. The man smiles. John smiles. "Hey I'll see ya later DOOD!"
It's 12:37am and John is staring at the beige straw hat that the whiskey breathed man gave him... John lugged out his vintage 1970's typewriter and was finally in the mood to write. He knew what he wanted to start with, but just right before he was about to type the letter L with his ring finger, the sound of a 4-stroke engine starts revving...
WERE LOOKING AT YOU. WE KNOW WHO YOU ARE. HOW YA DOING HONEY?

2023.06.08 10:00 Brandianne79 I need help identifying the Hit skip driver who killed my husband 🙏
 | My husband was in a hit and run accident on May 13th. The suspect was driving an x5 BMW maybe the lci version and possibly a diesel. The suspect attempted to run a woman off the road minutes before the accident my husband was in. She has video of the BMW. There's pictures from a house camera before and after the accident. My husband went to get pizza and whatever this guy did when he passed my husband caused him to follow him.. my husband then TURNED around and headed back towards town the BMW turned around and followed him.. attempted 2 pass him.. there was an oncoming car.. the BMW shoved my husband off the road. He hit an embankment.. airborne about 30 yards.. hit a house, started rolling about 50 yards to the next house, hit a tree and a parked car and was ejected. He sustained multiple life threatening injuries and a traumatic brain injury that caused his death. The accident was in La Rue Oh 43332 on rt 95 between LaRue and New Bloomington. It's been on the news. The Ohio State highway patrol is in charge of the investigation.. they got warrants for the cell towers and BMV records for what they think the car is... they've got nothing so far. I've posted a 1500 reward.. I'm afraid he's going to dump the car .. 😭💔 submitted by Brandianne79 to Ohio [link] [comments] The only positive thing out of this is that he was an organ donor and he saved some people 😭❤️ |

2023.06.08 09:06 Apprehensive_Two688 AITA for leaving for work hours early because my stepdad gets on my nerves
It’s summer and I am working a lot more than I did during the school year (I will be a senior this fall). During the day I just like to complete my daily tasks that my mom may give me or that I may have for myself. Today specifically my mom asked me to wash the towels and fold them and put the trash cans by the road before I leave for work which I did before I left. I also had to work on my passion project(essentially a project that relates to what you want to do in the future). While I was working on my passion project my stepdad kept asking me what am I doing and I kept telling him I was working on my project. I already know he doesn’t see the project as important since it’s the summer and I respect his opinion over my project but I would at least appreciate it if he gave me piece and quiet while I’m trying to work on it.
He just kept repeatedly asking me what am I doing,when I go to work,have I done this yet and eventually I just got tired of it. I go to work at 5 but I left around 2 because he was getting on my nerves and I knew I wasn’t going to be able to focus on my project if he kept bothering me. So I just left the project alone got dressed and left. I went to go eat something before work and I drove to my job and sat in the parking lot and ate them just walked around in stores around my job before 5.
I got home like at 11 and my mom was mad at me that I left hours early and I tried explaining to her that I was simply just trying to work on my project and that my stepdad wouldn’t stop talking to me while I was trying to focus. Then she says he is worried that I’m spending too much time at home. I literally work everyday this week I’m not going to go hang out with friends before I go to work then go to work hungry and tired I like to relax before I go to work now if I went to work in the morning and came back in the evening I could understand this statement but who hangs out with people before they go to work that makes it feel rushed.
And she knows when I don’t work I’m not at home majority of the day. I would gladly not be home majority of the day everyday this week if I didn’t work and she knows that. Then she said tomorrow I am going to leave at 4:45 instead of leaving hours early and I am just going to have to deal with him getting on my nerves. Bsffr because he said that I basically spend too much time at home but now he is going to make me spend even more time at home with him before work.

On this day (June 8) in Nintendo history...
Releases
- Color TV-Game 15 was released in 1977 in Japan. This light tennis game, developed by Nintendo R&D2, is a follow-up to Color TV-Game 6 with an improved processor, allowing for 15 variations on Light Tennis. This time the games included two variants of Tennis, Hockey and Volleyball, and two Ping Pong games, all available to play in singles and doubles. Each variant features changes to the layout of the play area and the obstacles in the way of the ball.
- Color TV-Game 112 was released in 1978 in Japan. This racing game, developed by Nintendo R&D2, is a simple driving game with either the large steering wheel on the base unit for 1-player games, or two smaller wired controllers for 2-player games. You control a car from a bird-eye view, and must avoid the other cars on the road. By changing the various switches on the system, it was possible to play up to 112 variants of the game. Many of these involve changing the movements of the other cars or the size of the road.
- Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again! was released in 2009 for DSiWare in North America. In this puzzle game, developed by Nintendo Software Technology, the re-opening of Mario's theme park, Super Mini Mario World, was going so well... until Donkey Kong burst in and kidnapped the hapless Pauline once again! So it's up to you and the Mini Marios - tiny mechanical Mario toys - to rescue Pauline from that crazed ape's clutches. Instead of controlling the Mini Marios directly, you use the stylus the manipulate objects in each trap-laden level.

 | Guam Power Authority (GPA) continues its power restoration process and have made progress to its post-typhoon recovery. The crews are divided into sectors to systematically address grid repairs throughout the island. GPA will continue to provide an estimate recovery summary to summarize our restoration progress to the Island-Wide Power System (IWPS). submitted by moshpitrocker to guam [link] [comments] Typhoon Mawar Recovery Summary As of 1:00 pm, THURSDAY June 8, 2023 IWPS System Load Restored (Customer Demand) 66.0% Customers Restored 48.8% Note: System Load (customer demand) percentage is higher than customer count because commercial and industrial loads are higher than residential loads. Generation Capacity: 154MW of capacity online supporting 132MW load. TODAY’S KEY OBJECTIVES INCLUDE: • Continue Phase II recovery effort by sweeping these feeders and restoring customers with minimal typhoon damage. • Continue to work on urgent, essential needs islandwide. POST-TYPHOON RECOVERY PHASE II (June 6 – 13, 2023) In the second phase of the post-typhoon recovery, GPA crews are addressing three or more sectors (north, central, and south) to restore as many customers (with minimal storm damage) as possible per feeder. Those with significant damages will be addressed in Phase III recovery efforts. Some areas of focus over the next 1 to 3 days include: • P-270: Liguan Terrace subdivision. • P-310: Harmon McDonald’s on to Route 1, including Taitano Road. • P-250: Ordot-Chalan Pago area. • P-280: Anigua substation towards Maina, and through to Asan valley. • P-261: Malojloj gas station down to Inalahan, and onto Malesso. • P-202: Route 1 from Tamuning substation to East Agana (old Nissan Motors). • P-220, P-221, P-222, P-223: Agat and Santa Rita villages and subdivisions • P-87, P-88, P-89: Dededo village work continues, including Ysengsong. • P-330, Y-331, Y-332: Yigo village work continues. • P-322: Alageta Street area, Dededo. • P-294: Mariano Street area, Mangilao. • P-46*: NCS area, Dededo *Heavy typhoon damaged feeders GENERATION CAPACITY • Current operable capacity is 154MW which is adequate for today’s load of 132MW. • Work continues to dry out base load units (Piti 8 and Cabras 1), as they proceed toward being placed online at the earliest possible date. Cabras 2 expected to be online by this evening. Piti 8 may be online Friday, June 9. GENERAL NOTIFICATIONS: • A fifteen (15) member line crew from Snohomish PUD, Washington arrives this evening, Thursday, June 8 to assist in recovery effort. This team will concentrate on the transmission system restoration in order to bring reliability back to pre-typhoon conditions. Transmission line restoration and redundancies are critical to a successful recovery. • The island-wide power system (IWPS) may be unstable, with fluctuating voltages, power interruptions and intermittencies occurring during restoration and recovery especially after a strong typhoon. Outages or interruptions may occur after power has been restored. This is not unusual as the grid is fragile and a period of system instability will occur until full restoration is completed. GPA will make every effort to have power restored as quickly as possible to its customers. Once full restoration is completed around the island, the system will stabilize and less power interruptions will occur. • Our priority is to restore energy back into your homes and businesses; and restore the island-wide power system online at full capacity. GPA linemen and support crews are working night and day for you, your families, and your businesses. Si Yu’os Ma’åse’ for your patience and support. |

With tens of thousands expected to attend Tel Aviv's Pride Parade, hundreds of police officers were deployed across the city from Thursday morning to ensure public safety and block roads as part of a massive law enforcement operation.
The march will be held on Thursday afternoon, with participants gathering at 4 p.m. and marching at 5 p.m. along the beachside route from the corner of Shalag Street and Hebert Samuel Boulevard, until the parade ends at Daniel Street at around 8 p.m. A number of roads in the area were closed from 6 a.m. Police said they will not allow parking along the parade route, have banned all weapons from the area, and have forbidden the flying of drones without prior permission.
The traditional party that typically takes place at the end of the parade will be held at Ganei Yehoshua in the north of the city on Friday from 12 p.m. until 6:30 p.m. Some of Israel's biggest artists, including 2018 Eurovision winner Netta Barzilai, Ran Danker, Nunu, Ivri Lider and others are set to perform at the event.
"Our goal needs to be clear to every police officer and commander - that every participant in the parade tomorrow returns home safely, and with a smile," said Tel Aviv District Commander Amichai Eshed, after police completed their preparation for the events.
Over 170,000 people participated in last year's parade, which marched down Rokach Boulevard in the north of the city rather than along the traditional route in central Tel Aviv.
An estimated 30,000 people marched in the Jerusalem Pride Parade last week under tight security.

I have a car parked in my garage for a few months now and I got a letter from the dmv for an insurance lapse that says I need to either surrender the plates or prove the car was insured in this period.
I thought you can have an uninsured car as long as you're not driving it on public roads.
How do I hear about so many people driving with no insurance? How aren't they getting fined all the time?

2023.06.08 08:16 zepster313 [New York State] Fine for insurance laps on unused car
I have a car parked in my garage for a few months now and I got a letter from the dmv for an insurance lapse that says I need to either surrender the plates or prove the car was insured in this period.
I thought you can have an uninsured car as long as you're not driving it on public roads.
How do I hear about so many people driving with no insurance? How aren't they getting fined all the time?

2023.06.08 08:14 Hankering-Gile Planning to buy a van to live out of to be able to get out to more places and maybe wild camp too after parking. Is it easy to find parking that you can feel it is relatively secure to leave while off out exploring for maybe 1 night+ camps?
I do not know how it works. I used to just do day walks using public transport.
As I am planning to move to live in a van at least for a while until I transition to live in the country, I plan to explore some more of the national parks closer to me that I didn't when I was tied to staying within a day's walk of the train line.
I am thinking van out to a spot. Park and maybe use a wheel clamp as deterrant and perhaps go for a night or two+ walking exploring. Are parking situations conducive to this? I am wondering if I might get antsy the longer I was from the van.
As I say, having used public transport for so long, I am not sure how this works.
Parking on very stark roads right out there the vehicle will stick out but with added security maybe not too much bother? I have seen one couple say they don't leave their van in such situations, preferring to leave it on a residential road in the nearest town.
Also not sure about parking rules when parking up in remote places? Is it allowed? Just want to hear general protocol.
Are there also securish commercial parking spots in national parks where it will be well'ish trafficked such that you could feel it will be pretty safe?
Might just want to do dayhikes mostly, radiating from the van, since I plan to have the van as a sleeping wagon however the choice to camp and feel comfortable about leaving the vehicle is good to know about if it is feasible.

The air around Hershey is worse than it was for New York City yesterday. https://www.airnow.gov/?city=Hershey&state=PA&country=USA Allentown isn't doing much better at 412. https://www.airnow.gov/?city=Allentown&state=PA&country=USA Hopefully they'll have gone down by the time most people are even seeing this, but it's extremely unlikely they'll be that much better tomorrow that it won't be extremely unhealthy for their employees and patrons to be the parks. Pennsylvania has issued a code red for the state. They're definitely not the only park that should close tomorrow for the sake of their workers. Where I live the air quality is only half that and just sitting around my home my throat and chest feel like I've been smoking cigarettes, which I quit smoking over the last year so I can recognize the feeling. The Harrisburg Senators postponed yesterday's game, so other outdoor venues in the area are taking the steps to protect their employees and patrons. It would be disturbing in my opinion if the central Pennsylvania parks didn't join them. |
