“Dear PoPville,
I’m trying to avoid grocery stores as much as possible. That’s been doable for produce and pantry staples so far, and I know we can get meat directly from farms at the farmers’ markets that are still open. Does anyone know of good sources to buy fish (either fresh or frozen)?”
“Dear PoPville,
All of my FedEx packages keep coming like this to my place in Shaw. No matter how many times I’ve called FedEx they don’t seem to care. I am not getting anything fancy delivered but its kind of annoying. See video below for today’s drop off. Any advice?” (more…)

“Metro today released preliminary details of its covid-19 pandemic recovery plan, outlining a flexible blueprint for ramping up service, while protecting customers and employees, as the region prepares for recovery from the public health crisis. The recovery strategy will be discussed at Metro’s Board of Directors meeting on Thursday, May 14.
Metro’s plan is closely aligned with steps planned by local governments and employers, including the federal government. Its success depends on a sustained downward trajectory in infections and a gradual ramp-up in service and ridership. The phases of the plan coincide with the relaxing of stay-at-home policies, return to workplaces, and the widespread availability of testing, treatment and a vaccine, among other variables. (more…)
