Dominating My Day



Tuesday was filled with breaking news. One story cascaded into the next.

Mandy Bell at the Barb Wire Grill says she heard the Mayor say he wouldn’t enforce the governor’s executive order. That’s when she decided to open her dining room at 50-percent capacity.  There were a series of complaints to the health department and State’s Attorney Kevin Kakac. 

wouldn’t want to be Kakac trying to convince a judge there was a real and present danger here. With only two COVID-19 positives, both of which out of quarantine, that’s not a winning hand. 

So, Bell is open again today.

Then the Governor announced a phased regional plan to restore Illinois. I studied it and can’t see us moving to a place where we can have more than 10 people together until July, if then.

That’s only a whisper away from school, football games and during all that time----no church services in our sanctuaries or family funerals at our funeral homes. 

The Governor also  grouped us in the same region as the Metro East---Madison and St. Clair counties. Our numbers will be skewed. Wayne County is not the Metro-East.

The whirlwind continues. It’s only Wednesday. Things are heating up.
