It’s been fairly quiet here for the last 5-6 weeks. Ever since most of the ski resorts closed in March. Yay global warming :/ I preferred last March when we both had a pandemic AND multiple blizzards.
The weekends have still been crowded but for the most part Sunday afternoon thru Thursday afternoon have been quiet traffic-wise, people-wise.
To be clear – still more crowded than they ever were before 2020 and the fear-porn bay-area crowd fleeing and coming here. And then the vacationers who don’t not fly anywhere so drive here.
But last weekend was Memorial Day. Typically the start to tourist season. Not as bad as the 4th of July through mid-August but still crap.
Now this weekend, you can hear people hooting and hollering AM, afternoon and PM (seriously FUVK Air BNB), cars racing up and down my street like it’s a fn freeway. Oh – and let’s not forget the garbage I picked up all along my walk today at the lake because HEY WHO FN CARES RIGHT?
Constant reminder that I hate humans. 99% of them. Fuck off.
