Bill had been out of state. He writes,

I stopped by the bank, where you still cannot go inside, but you can use the drive through. As I pulled in I saw a couple of the employees with an older couple in the parking lot. They were all standing around talking, so I pulled up to say, “hey.” The girls at the bank saw me and said, “where have you been?” I told them … We got into a conversation and all of them said they thought this was a “power grab” or a “controlled demolition of our economy.” I just smiled and nodded.
