We don't wear masks when out walking/exercising with just a few people around, only when in stores or situations where you can't easily maintain distance from others. Covid cases have increased in our area, with the first hospitalizations since this started. So we are both too nervous to consider doing without distancing and/or masks.
This is us too. We’ve gotten a cluster of new cases in our county.
You know, wearing a mask and distancing are simple steps to provide protection for ourselves and others.
When we walk in the park, we don’t wear masks.
And is Jamine is having people over to her digs who are out and about in the area, she is not being safe.

Hi, if you are talking about me, I feel comfortable and what I do and who comes in my house etc etc....as I have said many times fear is not in my mindset. And it's is MOST I'd say. The media has done a good job.
I got a good haircut today and 30 minutes of a no mask haircut and no fear here. And has Jina said, many folks she deals with are in big fear, she and her husband are not. But they both work with the public. So.....

IMO, you are not being safe. But you are an adult and certainly can make your own decisions. I hope you are safe and remain healthy.
If I was 80+ and didn't leave the house I might not wear a mask or ask those around me to wear a mask either. 80 years old is enough to decide if you want to catch covid19 and die.

Jamin, you are so lucky to find someone to come to your house to cut your hair. Daughter's SIL is a stylist and said she is new at it and doesn't cut short layered hair. She does go to her sister's home and cuts her long straight hair, and with the baby there. Wearing masks? lol
Memorial Day Weekend my Daughter, DIL, and year old Grandson drove from NY to PA to stay with us. NO MASKS! Think we stayed 6 feet away from each other? Gotta protect the most vulnerable. Babies and Elderly!!!!
I wear a folded bandanas with attached rubber bands ONLY to gain admission to supermarkets. Sorry, not wearing a mask of which I have a half dozen. Gift. The trick with the bandanas is that you can make it as tight or loose as you want. Trouble breathing. Imagine a stupid, tight mask? I loosened the bandanas and wear it not up around the bridge of my nose but down around my nostrils. Air gets through now, BUT as soon as I leave the store, it comes off in the parking lot.

I am 71. Jamin and I are in agreement on this.
If you are not covering your nose the bandana is worthless.

Bingo! Point being they let me into supermarkets. My sole purpose of wearing it. I have seen other customers pulling their masks down around their chins once inside.
My husband, same age as me, has had two heart attacks, has a Pacemaker, and Parkinson's. He has driven from PA to NJ in same car with a friend to buy liquor about four times. Our State Run stores were closed down. One time they just went for a drive together and drove into Upstate NY to see the sights. Over an hour one way. Ate lunch together in the car. Oh, no. His friend is 65.
He goes once a week to his friends house, with a couple of other men, to play cards. Wearing masks? Sitting 6 feet away? Disinfecting the cards?
I am not quite as "social" as he is, but I do miss going to our local VFW, chatting with the women, and having some Hot Wings at the bar. Tell me how to eat wings wearing a mask?
You need to wear a mask if you are going to speak to people like a worker. I don't care if you're indoor or outdoor speaking directly at somebody is spraying them with your droplets. If you're just going out for a walk and not talking to people just go about your own business without a mask. However I see a lot of people are outside not wearing anything lining up at a store ordering stuff without a mask on. Unless you are picking up stuff and not having a conversation you need to put on a mask when speaking directly to someone.
I wear one in the grocery store and thats it. Im thankful its not something I have to wear outdoors. Although some states I think a mask is mandatory outside even. Here in Fla it is just to damn hot and muggy for these things. What I don't like about them, they dont stay in one place, moving up and down, Makes it hard to breathe at times. Im really not sure they do all that good to be honest with you.
