The Age of Aquarius

Out and about on the Duc.

Well after the dawning of the Age of Aquarius we live with its pernicious consequences: family breakdown, broken school systems, universities steeped in Marxism, growing numbers of useful idiots and takers, and rampant, government sanctioned murder of preborn children. Still. What can I say? It was good living at the apex, in any case. Oh! And did I mention? Hunker down. It ain't over yet!

I had anticipated stopping at the Burr Trail Cafe in Boulder, UT for lunch. It's a fast casual place and the lines to ordering were too long and the prevalence of large numbers of walking mask people suggested to me that disease was rife in and around the restaurant. I rode on to Escalante, bought a sandwich, chips and a drink at a Sinclair convenience store, and crossed the street where there was a closed down coffee shop with some outdoor tables. I ate alone... outdoors, likely a safer option (hopefully, knock on wood) than the disease-ridden Burr Trail Cafe in Boulder.
