I check the NYT daily hotspot updates sort of like the map you posted earlier dado. The NE seems to be the new hot spots and the west and south seem to be better. The hospital crunch here is better. I used to hike and bike with some form of earbuds or headphones, but any more I like the wind, birds, and silence. I'm undecided on Christmas events so far, but large gatherings with travellers from elsewhere that I don't know well are out. The shots and booster has given me a little more confidence and all of my small famiily and social circle are up to date on shots.
