Thanks Fog. Now the COVID unemployed will know where to send their last penny or two. Or “Poopy Pants” in the California state prison unemployment scandal might be able to spend a little cash from the millions he bilked from the public.

DAW, not sure what the unemployment scandal has to do with helping out some of the area businesses affected by the pandemic.
Having been to PSR over the Thanksgiving holiday, business is running about 25% of usual, at best. For Thanksgiving dinner, we served 163 people, a far cry from our usual numbers of 400+.
The restaurant is open for lunch and dinner, to go orders, or to eat on the porch. While Inyo county is still allowing indoor dining with limitation, PSR has decided to forgo indoor dining for the time being. The giant tent is setup next to the restaurant, and can be used.
The motel and campground is open, but of course the numbers are way down.
PSR is hoping business will pick up a bit, so they can bring back some staff. Right now, it is still a skeleton crew, but they have hired a cook and a server at this point.
