July 3 2020 - Selling Wildly

What has been selling wildly during COVID-19?  First off was toilet paper.  Then eggs, flour, yeast.  And that meant that bread makers sold out too.  Also rice cookers, vacuum sealers, soda makers.  Grocery stores all of a sudden had a lot of snack food - Oreos and Cheetos, and lots of potato chips and popcorn.

There was an immediate rush of suspect websites looking to cash in on COVID-19 products - Shopify registered 500 new e-commerce sites, according to the New York Times.  

Bicycle sales have spiked-  or is it skyrocketed?.  Swimming pools from tiny to large are all sold out too..  
Office supplies went up for those working. When not working?  All the hobbies - from gardening to crafts, feeding the birds, and getting furry pet friends.  


What plummeted were car sales - yet it seems to me that car sales may go up now - driving seems so safe compared to transit.

Our pictures today tell a story - the beautiful blossom trail looks ragged to me in the summer.  Or maybe I find the ragged fields under moody skies. 

I have to show you this pair of houses on Sann Road at the Lake - the first road east of Beamsville's Ontario street.  There's a mushroom cloud size house  next to the tiny summer cottage sitting on a lot not more than 15 feet wide.
