I tend to agree, 100% compliance when I go to the store, but 0% at home. I don’t want it, I don’t hang with anyone now. I have to meet with a client this morning and mask will be worn, if the client feels offended he can hire someone else.

I wouldn’t count on it but I don’t blame you for hoping it’s back. I’m burning hotel points for my wife and kids at the moment, super cheap for most places on the mainland. If I didn’t have unused flight credits with UA I’d burn those miles as well. The good news is the beaches and parking are a non issue now, scary actually in very little activity. The bad news is all the closed restaurants and retail stores, which makes things a little boring for vacation intended travelers.
I want to go to Oahu for a day and spend time at Pearl Harbor, but the quarantine on return to Maui makes that impractical.
