I hear the plans are for a return to some sort of economic activity before long. These kinds of pictures I can take if I get up in the middle of the night whether or not the town is shut down. However just at the moment getting in the car at four in the morning just isn't necessary at the moment with the city shut down. This attractive pile is a real estate office not a stone's throw from Mile Zero. Behind it you can see the entrance to the old jail in the Jefferson Browne building. You can see no people and neither could I.
then I turned to my right and took this picture of the empty main post office. It put me in mind of the post office's plea for coronavirus funding which was denied even as airlines got theirs.
Mile Zero with no one around. There are lots of souvenirs available if you need them. Not that you can buy them in person right now. Speculation is how much e-commerce will be inspired to ship stuff all over the place from Key West. Perhaps you won't need to be an actual tourist, just order your Mile Zero key chain on line and get it shipped. I expect you can do that now it's just becoming a more obvious way to do everything now it seems.
In normal times I'd never bother to notice this sign. It has a nice nostalgic ring to it now, imagining a street full of people and dogs. Not the sort of scene you can find today.
"Coming Soon -March 15th" frozen in time. Properly lit up at the Tropic Cinema but as abandoned as if in a zombie apocalypse.
Not every empty store front can possibly be virus related. Can it?
Leaves piling up on Duval Street. Not a permanent feature of life but evocative of the times we are living.
The bar closed tight, the city darkened.
A slow walk through a dead city.
Rusty doesn't care as long as we get time together.

Truly looks like an episode of the twilight zone. Probably feels like it too. Hope the small business owners can get back and running soon.
That will be interesting. Also what happens if they re-open too early and the virus comes back with a vengeance. I think it will be up to us individually to take care of ourselves at that point. Its all unbearable.
Hello, my name is prof. Mukhtar. I am from Kazakhstan, the birthplace of Dimash Kudaibergen, a popular singer who can heal people with his singing.
These days, the whole world is fighting a pandemic and isolated from each other. It is psychologically difficult to tolerate isolation from society and friends. If it were not difficult, we are healthy and can run around the apartment and smile. But there are children bedridden from birth. Imagine being so isolated for so many years. Presented? Trembling in the body from the mere thought that it could comprehend us. But we are at least isolated, we are healthy and our duty to our conscience and God is to help sick children. The main thing is that many of the seriously ill children can be helped to recover in the best clinics in the world, but they need funds. I am a participant in a project that provides financial assistance in the treatment of sick children from around the world for 8 years.
I appeal to bloggers from around the world, in your hands is the health of children. There are no other children. You communicate daily with your subscribers, you can convey to subscribers the opportunity to provide financial assistance to needy sick children. Together we can help them. For example, if 1000 people in the framework of the project transfer $ 100 each, then the project will generate more than $ 50.0 thousand that will send 1-2 children for treatment. And if 1.0 million citizens provide financial assistance, then it will be possible to cure up to 2.0 thousand of our children.
Someone wondered. Why suddenly I became so kind and worried about sick children. I’ve been facing a problem every day for 18 years now, every minute with a problem that money can’t solve. My son is 18 years old and he is disabled since birth. He has Down Syndrome (trisomy on chromosome 21). This disease is at the genetic level and cannot be treated. We tried to treat. At 3 years old, he underwent heart surgery. Pricked stem cells. There are no improvements.
I unfortunately can not help my child. But I want and can organize assistance to other children who can be cured and tomorrow they will be full citizens of our country.
In this regard, I appeal to all bloggers to help disseminate this information.
In order to stimulate the dissemination of this information, I want to announce a contest among bloggers. Competition with prizes. Where the main prize will be a car. Yes car. If only 1.0 thousand or more bloggers from around the world will participate in the competition. The main prize winner will be a blogger who has invited the largest number of charity donors in the amount of $ 100. These are the conditions of the project.
Dear bloggers, prove that you are popular among your subscribers. Prove that you can lead your subscribers. Or you pretend that you are a blogger. I am sure that you deserve respect. It's time to prove it.
Promotion of the project will allow you to: 1. increase popularity and attract more subscribers, 2. make money on attracted financial assistance, 3. the main thing is to help raise money for the treatment of funds for seriously ill children.
Think about it. Chat with bloggers, if you decide to participate in the contest, write me an email Yrath2510@gmail.com address. I will send you a link to register in the project. According to your applications, it will be easier f
or me to keep track of how many bloggers have joined the contest.
I also appeal to ordinary citizens, if you decided to help seriously ill children at the family council, then write me an email. Zhuman1708@gmail.com address. https://t.me/Mukhtar58. I will send you a link to register in the project to provide financial assistance to sick children.
I am sure. The world is not without good people. Healthy children are a healthy nation.
I am waiting for suggestions from you dear readers and bloggers.
Regards prof. Mukhtar.
