Quarantine Diary 3

Another quiet day keeping (mostly) to ourselves. Misty, calm and greening.
Ruth and I went grocery shopping early. Some things were available, others in short supply or absent. Most people behaved appropriately; we avoided those who were less cautious of their own and others health.

We took a long walk in a park area that we had not previously strolled in.

Birds, and the earth slowly coming alive again.

And the virus... still out there.

Quarantine Diary 2

Another day of social distancing due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Ruth has been working at home. I continue being out of gainful employment, along with so many other people.

These photographs are in the order they were made.

My home, my yard, and Glencarlyn Park (and of course, my dear Ruth).

Quarantine Diary 1

Along with everyone else, Ruth and I have been sequestered during the recent COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic. She has been working from home. I am completely out of work.

These pictures of our quiet time together were made today in Reston, Virginia.

They are in the order of their creation.
