Well, another week of the COVID-19 virus running the country, and the Old Men of the Mountain are still holed up. The OMOTM are planning on holding a get-together where there is lots of space.

Like most people right about now, the Old Men of the Mountain are getting antsy about getting out and seeing people.

The question of the day is the same question that is hollered by the kids from the back seat on any car trip over fifteen minutes, “ARE WE THERE YET?”

This should be an interesting week for the Old Men of the Mountain.

As usual, these are a few notes from the Old Men of the Mountain who email or who this scribe speaks to over the phone. From those spoken to, they are beyond bored.

The week that this retroactive OMOTM report is being worked on has not been an April month.

What now? This scribe and his wife have been in the house for a few weeks; the column and my painting has kept me busy, and actually this scribe has bit off more than he can chew.

The Old Men of the Mountain did not meet again this week — only in thought.

This report will have just a few current comments and there are only a couple of email communiqués.

Number one, this is not a report on a breakfast gathering. As most know, the restaurants are closed except for those that can do takeouts.
