I don't know if this one that I am linking is the one you are thinking of, but this beeswax for soapstone and butcher block has been recommended on the Kitchens Forum for many years. The woman who sells it is an artist. She also sells the beeswax on eBay. Here is a link that might be useful: Wooden Wonders Beeswax

I've been walking. I also have been doing my normal gym floor work and stretching in the living room. Body weight squats and lunges. Push-ups. Kettlebell swings (with a dumbbell, because I don't actually own a kettlebell). And I broke out my stepladder to do step-ups. I have some resistance bands that I haven't broken out yet but was thinking this morning that I should for rows and the like. But I haven't been working out as often as I should (that was also a problem when I was going to the gym...). I always intend to take a walk every day, but I'm fortunate enough to still have a full-time job working from home, and cooking and cleaning are taking up way more of my time than normal. So the days have been getting away from me. I need the structure, though, and the exercise, and the change of scenery.

I can speak to schools in New Mexico: There will be essentially no in person learning until after Labor Day. There are a few exceptions for special ed students, some K-3, which will be limited to no more than 5 kids per adult. The plan after that time is to bring kids back slowly by age group, starting with the younger ones first. I think at that time the schools will still be limited to 50% capacity, so there are cohorts of certain kids going on Monday and Tuesdays and the second group going on Thursdays and Fridays. One of my sons attends a charter high school and they say that it looks like there will not be kids on campus until October. We have also heard though that school starts August 10th but will of course be online. Connectivity is a huge issue for the state. There are many people with sub-par speeds. At my house I usually get 1 megabyte which is just ridiculously slow and not helpful. All I can do is hope that they upgrade the system, some day. At the community college, most classes will be online, except for those with a lab component. I am not as up to date on requirements for churches. The church I attend has such a small census that we are able to meet. There is no singing, all socializing is outside afterwards and everybody is masked. Most people in our group would agree that you do not need the building to worship, etc., but because of the size of our group and the connections, people needed to see each other, especially because many were otherwise quite isolated. I have been impressed with our governor for the most part. When she walked back dining rooms being open she was asked about why not go back to a total lockdown. She noted that she thought it was just not sustainable long term. I think part of that was just needing to provide people an outlet to do something, even though so many are angry and unreasonable through it all. I feel quite sorry for all those governor's who are trying to do right by their states with the limited information available because no one is happy. I look at NM though where our positivity rate is about 3-5% most days as compared to our neighbors of Texas and Arizona with much higher rates and I think well done governor.

Gray, thank you, that's the house. The property record is for Jolly Jims next door. I used to have a picture but lost it on the old pc and didn't even think of getting another one. Maybe the owner knows who owns the land. Danville used to be a busy place with Dan River Mill where some family members worked and I have the Button's Doll that my mom got somehow. Oh yeah, her twin sister's husband had a tobacco farm and we'd go there and play all the time. Salonva, do you ever feel like a piece of you is missing because you didn't know your grandparents? Carolb, my mom's oldest sister helped the twins when they graduated high school, and I think she paid mom's college tuition. Mom entered a radio contest to win a free wedding, dress, honeymoon to VA Beach, reception, the works. She won! I have their wedding pictures and it was a big reception. That's how I got her Franciscan dinnerware...apple design, it was one of her many gifts. You know she played the orphan card. lol
