According to the other forum, Ironman Texas was canceled. So some of the local governments are still keeping things somewhat constrained.
It was postponed but it makes a more dramatic title to say it was canceled. I know that's not your words, but the title on the forum.
I've been surprised at how many are still masking up in the Austin area.
An interesting dichotomy: at the gym in the early morning, it's about 90% masked. I had to go one evening to pick up swim gear I accidentally left behind. The evening crowd was 90% not masked.
Home Depot, where I expected limited masking, was 100% masked.
We have not yet seen a big spike.
Yep same here in my experience in the Austin area so far. Lowes, HEB (our big grocery chain), restaurants, etc... So far pretty much everyone still wears a mask. In fact it is uncommon to see someone not wear one. Now, get outside the city into TX rural areas and that is not the case. But mask wearing was hit or miss anyway even during the state mandated time in those areas. So maybe not much has changed all round.
I think we will rapidly start to see it change within the next two months as vaccines start to cascade into the bulk of the population.
