I had go to McDonalds to pick up breakfast when I noticed they had this sign in the drive thru. My Aunt is a nurse working in the Covid-19 unit at a local hospital. I took the picture of the sign to send to her. She was excited to see that they had such an offer. She was also suprised because she did not know that was something McDonalds was doing. She shared the information with her coworkers, whom most did also not know about that. I think it is important to share these kinds of offers for first responder. It's great that McDonalds is giving out free complete meals to the first responders, but it should be something that is more well known about. I am not sure if this is a local offer or a national one, but regardless The people who the offer is being made for should be made aware. I hope to see as time progresses more bigger chains that can afford programs like that to join and help us support all of the hard working first responders.

When the suggestions came out for being safe during the COVID-19 pandemic, I made a couple of masks for myself and they turned out to be really nice. Having a lot of leftover quilting fabrics, I decided I could make masks for my friends and co-workers. I noticed online that people were making masks and charging for them, with some costing up to $20 each. I didn't want to profit from the pandemic but I did want to 'make a difference', so I decided to suggest that each mask recipient make a voluntary donation to Hospice of the Valley. (Hospice has been caring for my 100 year old cousin and I thought this would be a nice way to give back and show my appreciation for all they have done through the years for my family.) Happily, everyone who ordered masks gave me a donation check with some being more than generous! Yesterday, I took the first batch of checks to Hospice and presented them to Lin Sue Cooney, Director of Community Engagement. They were so appreciative and I am so thankful for all those who contributed. Amidst all of the bad news about COVID-19, I feel like I created some good news for a change. I am getting pleasure out of creating some fun masks for people to wear to stay healthy, the donors will receive a Hospice receipt for a tax deduction, and Hospice will benefit from their donations. It's a win,win, win!!!

Today (5/1/20), bandcamp.com is waiving all of its revenue so all money from purchases will go directly to artists. Bandcamp is a music-sharing platform where artists or labels can directly upload music for purchase. Today, I purchased a compilation of B-sides, demos, and covers from a bunch of musicians. The compilation is called "The Song is Coming from Inside the House" and all proceeds will go to the Groundswell Rapid Response Fund which provides fast funding to grassroots organizations led by women of color, trans people of color, and low-income women and trans people in critical, but unexpected, fights to protect and advance reproductive and social justice, including mutual aid societies, rent moratoriums, and digital organizing.

I wish I could explain the emotion that was felt the moment this picture was taken. When Covid first came about and the city began to shut down, it was the ocean that gave people in my city comort.
I live in a small beach town in San Diego county. Surfing and going to the beach is an everyday thing. The ocean to many in the area is our church. The beach and the ocean is where we go to celebrate, to think, to heal our hearts after a break up. Being with our toes in the sand gives some of us strength more than breathing.
When Covid happened we all lost our life source when they closed the beach. They first closed the beach to staying tanning and sitting and reading. This was a hard adjustment as going to the beach to meditate and talk to the universe and set my intentions and manifestations was something I have done almost daily for 35 years. But it was okay, we could still walk the beach and we could still feel the toes in our sand and feel the waves crashing against our legs.
The day they closed the beach, it started to rain and it rained for days. Its as if the universe and the Gods all felt our loss. This past month being stuck in the house has been so feeling like being in a bucket of lobsters and they are all struggling to get out.
Its funny to think just some sand and some water can have such an affect on a person.
As I type this I have tears streaming down my face and I can remember that beautiful moment yesterday when finally getting back to the beach.
The moment my toes touched the sand and felt the water, it was as though it was easier to breathe. In speaking and keeping social distancing to some of the surfers and locals around and about, I discovered that I was not the only one that felt that way.
So many people see the ocean and the beach as their church, their religion, the thing that gives them strength, hope, courage and comfort. The ocean is like a giant warm hug with side of hot cocoa.
The water looks so brown and gross I know, but if you check out the waves at the beach at night, this is the time when the waves show off their bilolumencent glow! At night its a beautiful mixture of glowing blue, purple and white. Such a great reward from mother nature for enduring the time away.

Walking by the Gowanus canal I came upon these empty soy and fish sauce bottles. It was as if people had been drinking them during their lunch hour. Or emptying bottles before fleeing the city. And who would drink soy sauce anyway? 512 people died in NY State that day.

After college, and a year of vagabonding through Central and South America, I moved to the city forty-two years ago. I was drawn to New York, like many, by the energy and complexity of the city itself, and more specifically, the rich and endless theater found on its streets. While the array of cultural offerings has been a source of nourishment and pleasure, it is the streetlife that keeps me as excited as my first weeks here. What I love about New York is not what I know about the city, but how much I don't know. You cannot exhaust it as a subject, and from the start, I have made the city my primary interest and subject as a photographer. I always go out with a camera and am often mistaken as a tourist because of it. I take that as a compliment, given few can match the exalted state of excitement and awareness that a tourist experiences on a visit.
When the Coronavirus hit and the staggered shutdown of the city went from a talked about possibility to a reality, I found myself inside my apartment looking out at the street below. At first, I made short trips to get necessities, then later added walks through Central Park, and now through the streets of Manhattan. If you think of a photograph as a piece of theater, with a stage set, lighting, cast, and choreography, the new version of the streetlife of New York is an eerie and fascinating show. The set and lighting is much the same, but the cast and choreography have wildly changed. Wandering through Midtown is like walking through an amusement park in the off-season. You experience the present colored by what you know it to be in season.

I work at a Starbucks in Columbus, GA. Before the pandemic began we were already one of the busiest stores in our area, after the pandemic began it only got worse. Everyday we had lines double wrapped around our building, with people waiting 25 minutes or more. I didn't realize how "essential" we were until we were presented with situations like this on a daily basis.

This is a photo taken in the multipurpose room of an elementary school. Following the closure of the schools, teachers were asked to return to school to pack up the students’ belongings. Teachers were allowed in to the building on a very tight schedule, only a few at a time. They labeled each student’s bag and placed in line, according to the student’s last name. At some future date the parents will be able to pick up the bag at a curbside location.

This is my classroom for the rest of the school year. I have a feline supervisor who sleeps on the job. I don't get to see my students, our contact is limited to emails and comments in Google Classrom. I don't get to smile at them or high five them for their good work. Some students are completely missing in action, others turn in the work, but remain otherwise silent. Too many send emails full of anxiety and stress about school and life.
