Now in May, California Gov. Gavin Newsom encourages residents to go outdoors during the shelter-in-place order as long as they follow social distancing guidelines.
“We want you to see sunsets”
“We want you to enjoy activities outdoors…
…What they don’t want is people congregating outside in large groups.”
