To many people out there and I can't travel.

We never go anywhere on three day weekends. The highways are always a nightmare

Rick Allen

I purposely do NOT ever go anywhere on a Holiday weekend, I did when I was young however. I do not like crowds. I go places during the week when as few as possible people go. Being retired helps that, but now my health sucks, cant catch a break!!!!

Simply put...Fireworks and extreme weather create too much wildfire danger to take any chances leaving my home/property.

I'm going to get together with my family in another city to celebrate after not being able to for over a year.

Everybody wants to come to CO and so I go where no one is. BTW, it's a secret place.

Safe parking programs have a proven track record of successfully taking people from being homeless into having a place of their own. Safe parking programs cut down on costs to cities for ambulance calls, police calls, visits to emergency rooms and mental health crises that costs taxpayers money.

Duane Wyman

Perhaps? Hiding the un-housed in various random locations doesn't solve much. This is just another band-aid solution! Seems just the latest adaptation of "kicking the can down the road"...?
