Friday is my regular day to shop at my local farmers market that is located only a few blocks from my home so that I can easily walk over to it.

Since early March when lockdowns and facial mask edicts have become the norm, I have noticed visible changes in how the booths are being staffed and run. Every vendor worker is now wearing a mask, and patrons are barred from handling any of the produce (they have to ask the vendor to bag it for them). All but one vendor, however, are still accepting cash payments.

I missed last Friday's market due to an emergency, so I was concerned by the possibility that a new restriction or requirement had been imposed in the interim two weeks, such as the inability to shop at the market without wearing a mask. My fears were unfounded, as I managed to buy fresh strawberries, blueberries, and smoked salmon from three of my favorite vendors. Those sales were made possible without stares or comments from other shoppers because I was the only one in line who stood in front of their booths. The other booths at the market had lines of people, so I avoided them and left the premises immediately after my last purchase.

The sheeple have acquiesced to wearing facial masks without being aware of their health risks.

Face Masks Pose Serious Risks to the Healthy

I attribute that to their religious-like belief and fears derived from the messages that the MSM shills and health officials are feeding them on a daily basis. What I find equally interesting is that the bicyclists and joggers whom pass me by on the streets are invariably NOT WEARING MASKS.

When I was at the farmers market, I would guess that the temperature was somewhere between the mid-to-high 60s and there was very little wind and no rain. Prior to this contrived pandemic, such weather conditions would have brought out scores of people to the market to shop. I estimate that customer traffic at the market was probably half of what it should have been.
