We had to go to the Quad Cities yesterday.  Traffic wasn't like Chicago but it was heavy.  Cars were in both lanes backed up for almost a block at traffic lights.  Target, Walmart, Costco, Sam's Club, Menards, all were filled with cars and trucks. 

It occurred to me that these people all can't be working.  They can't all be on their day off or be shift workers taking this time to shop.  And seeing the shoppers it's difficult to believe their retired.
