Been a rough 15 minutes. Just found out both are closed. THF (The Henry Ford) until at least the 18th and Piquette indefinitely.

If you had plans to visit either, a phone call ahead may save you some grief.

I’m sorry to hear that. I was there yesterday and no one said anything. Hope the pandemic is brought under control sooner rather than later.

If the pandemic continues to worsen I think you've just seen the tip of the iceberg as far as cancellations. The last time something like this happened was 1918 and no one is around today who lived thru that. I was due to leave on a chartered cruise on Wednesday. The cruise was cancelled by the group who chartered the ship and the cruise company (HAL) is resisting refunding the fees paid. My wife and I may end up eating around $4400 if something can't be worked out.

I'm disappointed about the cancellation but also relieved to not be flying commercially and boarding a ship with 1200 other passengers from all over the country. My degree is in Biology and many years ago I studied the 1918 epidemic...I agree, sadly enough we've not seen anything yet.
