Forrest has asked MW to post the following:
Attention treasure hunters.
Because of the virus, it is time to rethink the search. In these dire times every logic and street sense says stay at home. Mayors and governors have mandated it, and so has the president. Much of the search areas in all 4 states, are closed. Because so many searchers are out of jobs they want to head out in their car and look for the treasure. I am getting many emails each day that tell me that. Please don’t do it. Hopefully by summer things will be different. Let’s stay at home and wait it out. it is really easy to be sorry, and it lasts a long time. f

I was one of those searchers who was out, thinking treasure hunting is the best isolation there is! It isn’t.
Forrest is right, I am home now. Even with hand sanitizer, disposable gloves for gas pumps, bringing all my own food, and not using public restrooms, the risk of spreading the virus is too great.
Thanks for the voice of reason we all need!
