I'm annoyed that my spouse thinks everything I want to do is too dangerous (covid). I mentioned going to a local brewery that has outside pouring, and a large area where you can bring your personal chairs and site them away from everyone else. Nope. I mentioned a winery that has wine slushies, and that I would go in with a mask and do the ordering, bring them outside and we could again put our chairs away from everyone else. Nope. Beaches are too crowded, so are local hiking trails. A couple of towns over, they have weekly outdoor concerts. Doesn't want to have to wear a mask for 2 hours. The only thing he's willing to do is drive around in the car, on the same roads we go all the time. I feel so mentally "itchy", and wanting to get out and (distantly) be around other people. I feel completely isolated. The only people I see are related to me - and spouse wasn't crazy about my nephew visiting last weekend even though he had a negative covid test the day he left.
I had a tough time getting him out of the house to do things before the pandemic. Now its 100x worse, with no end in sight.
My town of 12000 has had a total of 30 cases over 5 months, and the areas we are visiting are rural and even lower rates.
