Hood Canal, Wash.

Let us be your guides. Last week we headed to Seattle to pick up boat items that couldn't be shipped. Although my husband heads to SeaTac regularily for work, it was the first time I had left my "bubble." It was shocking to see favorite restaurants closed or clinging to the bare minmum. While many of the larger chains have the capacity to ride the storm, it is frightening to imagine the impact this will have on our small special hangouts. Fragile small business dreams are hanging in COVID uncertainty. You hear it all the time. Shop Local. Well, now more than ever, it's meaning resonates. If you are able, consider helping out your local eateries so they can cover their rent and keep staff working. Many of our small restaurants are open still - either for eat in or take out - and they could all use your support during these trying times.

Always check first before heading out. Some places are not open and will need your help when they feel safe to do so. Others are take out only or require reservations and have limits on table capacity. If you are eating in you may take off your mask while seated, but please be kind and patient with dining staff. They are trying to keep open and remain safe with a very restrictive set of rules to abide by. It isn't the same for them either! If you are on Facebook, check out this great resource compiled by the Shelton Mason Chamber, "Mason County Take-out & Delivery Options"(@mcfood). With 3500+ members the group discussion is updated with specials, hours and restaurant news in the area. Kudos to the Chamber for bringing the community together.
