That is the New Hampshire state motto. Maybe Tennessee should change from the Volunteer state to the Live Free or Die state?
According to the CDC, as of February 17, 2022, Tennessee is in the top 9 states with the highest 7-day covid-19 rates per 100,000.
You would be surprised (or not) how many of your acquaintances or their acquaintances have/have had Covid-19. I've been talking to a couple of people outside, luckily about 10 feet away, when they tell me someone close to them has Covid-19.
Yee haw!!! Be careful out there.
