&lt;p&gt;Morgan&#39;s bar interior may be closed, but they have carry-out food, we can order by phone for &quot;pickup&quot; if we need to.  Bring a cooler and drinks just in case, hopefully we can find a place to safely and distantly eat and drink and meet &quot;together&quot; after.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;Weather is getting unpredictable, if it&#39;s rainy and cold, keep your eye out for more information!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you find the shaker (of salt -- maybe not full) turn it in for a free drink (eventually)!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Public, current, past and future members are always welcome!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We&#39;ll carefully social distance and pick up trash.  &lt;strong&gt;Please bring masks&lt;/strong&gt; (and of course you wear gloves picking up trash anyway!)  Bring work gloves, long pants and boots are recommended because it can be muddy along the road.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Morgan&#39;s bar may be closed, but they have carry-out food, we can order by phone for &quot;pickup&quot; if needed.  Bring a cooler and drinks just in case, hopefully we can find a place to safely and distantly eat and drink and meet &quot;together&quot; after.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;In the event of rain, we will still clean, and we&#39;ll have to reschedule the meeting.  If there&#39;s lightning we&#39;ll cancel and &lt;/em&gt;&lt;i&gt;reschedule.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you find the shaker (of salt -- maybe not full) turn it in for a free drink (eventually)!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Public, current, past and future members are always welcome!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;In the event of rain, we will still clean. If there is lightning, we&#39;ll meet and reschedule cleaning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bring work gloves, long pants and boots are recommended because it can be muddy along the road.  Forecast looks good (and warm) so far!&lt;/p&gt;
