Youngest kid get restless after 5 days of isolation in his room. He is still coughing a little bit, we hope that will be over tomorrow. If, on Friday, he is 24 hours symptoms free, he is allowed to come out of his isolation. Me and the rest of the family have to go for a test tomorrow afternoon to see if we are Covid free. Hopefully that's the case, so we can go to relatively normal this weekend. Test on Monday on me was negative, so that's hopeful.

keeping your kid in isolation for a week is hard, both on us an my son. Poor guy.
 
I was trying to leave the airport but when I got to the gate there was an inbound fuel tanker waiting to get him. Realizing that there was no way he was going to back up and get out of my way, I moved forward to activate the gate and then backed up to get out of his way.

And there I was, sitting there minding my own business when a fire hydrant comes up and slams into me! They should tie those things down better!

I did get the airport people to position a pole next to that fire hydrant so you can see it coming. Of course, I supplied the pole, which I thought was very nice of me, considering the unprovoked nature of the attack.

I do not think that fire hydrants are related to concrete mailboxes; mine jumped out in front of a senior citizen a couple of years back. Nor wooden mailboxes; mine jumped out in front of glass company truck last year. Or houses and fences; mine jumped out in front of a pickup truck in 2016 (however the WX was terrible that day; it was very drunk out).

But fire hydrants on airports do not have the normal proximity warning devices installed; they are called "curbs."
