Nothing has changed.100% seating +6' distancing=50% seating.
We're all wondering what the off season is going to be like this year
With one home in Cambridge and one up here, I expect the offseason to be busier than usual. The city is just not as much fun as it was, while NH is relatively unscathed. So we're extending by at least 6 weeks into the fall.

I think you’re right. The rental property next door is usually quiet by now, but it’s rented through September this year, and it might go longer, sad to say. With lots of schools going remote, and many companies operating that way, our “season” might be extended well into the coming months, which will be great for local businesses.

I agree that the population will maintain well into the winter. It would not surprise me if as we approach flu season the mandate goes back to take out only for restaurants. That is unless we learn of a miraculous cure or a sudden loss of concern as of November 4.

When I was in Europe many years ago there were many cafes and eateries that had people sitting outside well into winter with propane heaters at every table.
I'm not so sure Americans are up for that but it's doable.

When we were in Italy many years ago at Christmas there were propane heaters outdoors. They appeared to heat objects instead of the air.
Quite comfortable. Imagine snow and ice in Milan at New Years.
