Went out to a few local beaches in LA yesterday. Good low tide. Couldn't believe the 1000s upon 1000s of people out on this nice day. Not alot of them laying out on the sand , but walking and getting exercise. Still many were in close groups. You'd think it was the middle of summer. This presented a problem swinging and dodging people. But it was odd not having people come up and ask what I found ,etc. I have a feeling this won't last long. We are getting mixed signals from state officials. They say it's ok to go outside and get exercise , then come on the news and say to use social distancing. Only a few joggers came within 4 or 5' of me. I did good on coins and jewelry. Expecting rain over the next few days. Crowds should thin out. Lots of people not working. It was just a very strange day.
Well....today after the Mayor saw all the people on the beach yesterday , he has closed the parking lots of Santa Monica and Venice beaches. But I'm not sure if the actual beaches themselves are off limits. Just makes parking more tricky for me. If I'm physically not allowed to be on the beach , I will abide. Otherwise....I'm on it like a hobo on a ham sandwich !
Update # 2 - The governor just announced the closure of all state park parking lots making it tougher to park. The party could be over soon. Only thing in my favor is that the beach hunting has been horrible anyways for a long time now. But it is my exercise.
