Hi Folks.
Today as I start this piece I sit at the table looking outside into the backyard at the bushes and branches of the old tree all covered in snow. What is more beautiful than untouched snow? I don t know how many inches fell, but Susie s car was covered in snow, as was my driveway. Not to worry! Along came the reliable Shane Costa, ex-neighbor of the Cook family on Prince Street, who, when death claimed members of both families, continued to give Susie a hand in her own quarters on Conant Street. Today he cleared off her car and shoveled my driveway, and what a good job he did!

Officials on Cape Cod say the allocation of COVID-19 vaccine should be based on the Cape’s high proportion of people over 65, not the general population, but they’re not the only ones looking for more doses.
State Rep. Sarah Peake, of Provincetown, said local officials estimate that well below half of Cape Cod residents 75 and older have been vaccinated.
“We re asking for our fair share,” she said.
The complaints on Cape Cod come as other interest groups around the state advocate for their own share of the vaccine.
A coalition of 11 organizations focused on the needs of Black and Latinx residents is calling for vaccine to be distributed based on hospitalization rates, which would direct more doses to those groups.
