PART 1




It started with the closing of the beaches, bars and indoor eating at restaurants followed by no crowds of 50 or more and then 10 or more with added staying 6 feet apart. Then it was only essential businesses staying open--with a beauty shop here saying her business was essential. Oh yes, let's not forget million-dollar condos being built are essential but workers have to be 6 feet apart.


Then yesterday it became being confined to behind the closed doors of your home only to go out for groceries, drugstores, exercise and/or department stores.


Then we got Gateway rules in sort of a rude way. I went down to The Point and all the chairs were gone--also around the pool and the pool was locked. Walking back I saw that all the chairs and tables from the breezeway are gone. The only places you could sit are on the benches by the mailbox as they are screwed in. Also the smoking benches outside the complex.


Meanwhile, there are workers around the complex putting a new floor in the office, washing and waxing the community room floor (which is not allowed to be entered by residents) completely disregarding the 6-foot rule.


We have about 300 senior citizens living in the community most over 65, a lot over 70 and many over 80--I am not sure if any are over 90. Are they/we following the rules???
