Lake Travis is mostly closed as of last night, majority of ramps are blocked off. It wasn't due to the boaters but I believe it was all the people gathering at the parks.

the sun is good for you as it provides Vitamin d and that is good for you. During the 1917-1918 pandemic here in Forth Worth the hospitals put people outside in the sun and the people got better. Also viruses like indoor places not the great outdoors. I have been out fishing twice since the shelter in place order and will go again. I think Gov. Abbott is doing a great job leaving it to the cities to decide for shelter in place orders. Some counties have not even had one case of covid 19..Carry on Texas and ya'll people from other states us Texans don't like being told what do to from outsiders..

For Fishing? Don't think that's a good idea even when there isn't a pandemic. Now for snow....yes.

Is there anyway to transpose the lockdown onto those God forsaken wake boats?

I can see a large exodis of people fleeing to get out of those areas and go to other states to get somewhere where the hospitals aren't over crowded and risk not being able to be treated because of the scare comments they hear every day.
Most of the infections started from people traveling from other states, and has now started to spread in the community in our larger cities.


MOst of the cases have come from air travel --- densely populated area's with large amounts of people travelling in/out from other countries . The Nursing home in Kirkland Washington had 37 people die from one person travelling back from China. Add to that the Chinese New year Holiday ( where lots of people travelled from the US to China , then came back infected ) ( probably most were asymptomatic ) .
I used to do tons of International travel --- the two times I have been the most sick in my life were ---once travelling from Narita to SF and the last guy to get on the plane was sick as a dog and sat right next to me , the other was a colleague that came here from Japan for 3 days of meetings , sick as a dog . I ended up in ICU for 3 days and they initially thought I had contracted Bird Flu , didn't think I was gonna make it that time .
If you want to stop this from happening again ---- you do it at the airports .

Same scenario out here.. I was catching a few and another boat started sliding in my direction to get in on the action. A few fake coughs and he went the other way.
