I drive through Summerville when I take the “back way” to Atlanta, and I’ve missed the same turn there on a least two different trips.

Spouse and I were watching last night, and - wow - I had an “it’s me!” moment because I can’t see 8 inches (20cm?) without my glasses.

Oh, crap. I hope everyone’s okay.
Long COVID could destroy their future athletic hopes.
Fingers crossed for all of them.
