Six-foot markers on the sidewalk outside our local elementary school.

This elementary school is also used by the community for other purposes. Clearly it is still in use, even with schools closed. Taken during a walk around the neighborhood on day 19 of our lockdown.

Pandemic shopping

This is a photograph of the checkout lines in a Ralph's grocery store in Sherman Oaks, CA. It took 15 minutes to find a parking space in a multi-level parking structure, and the wait to pay for groceries was 45-60 minutes. The photo was taken just after the announcement that schools in the Los Angeles Unified School District would be closed; the volume of people shopping increased after that.
