I went to go and get groceries for my family. I pull into the parking lot and I see a line. I have never before seen a line like this to get into a supermarket. The line was stretching all the way down the side of the store and into the parking lot. I got in line. The line moved faster than I thought but it was still really hot outside and I had to wait for about 15 minutes to get into the store. The reason there was such a big line was because of the limit for the amount of people in the store and the social distancing.

Use one-word hashtags (separated by commas) to describe your story. For example: Where did it originate? How does this object make you feel? How does this object relate to the pandemic?
