(9,952 posts)proposed and implemented. They shut down a concert hours before it was suppose to happen saving me from having to interact with a whole lot of people. I really appreciated it that day, for sure. Ours is considering shutting down the restaurants and bars. I like that idea. I would like for them to get on it. We are smaller than big city so a little slower implementing, but we are NW and blue, that always plays out better for the people.
