morning (extreme social distancing) walk


It stopped raining today! which made for a very pretty early morning.  Here's the street outside our house: empty (which, to be honest, is not that unusual early on a Sunday).  However, it remains empty, alas, of an Amazon Fresh delivery van.  A test: we ordered groceries via Instacart and via Amazon Fresh on Friday.  The Instacart ones came, as they said they would, in more or less in two hours.  Even if there was only an approximation of what we ordered, it was still food.  Amazon Fresh - we were promised it 2 days later, between 5-7 this evening.  Alice is just off the phone with them, at 9.15 p.m. ... they don't know what's happened to it; it'll come tonight or tomorrow ... she pointed out that if it's left outside tonight, the coyotes will ransack it.  She got a refund ...  Now, I'm not sure that coyotes are that keen on kale and leeks and bananas and oats, but we are ... back to Instacart tomorrow, to ward off scurvy ...
