Saturday Photo: Whimsy and Covid 19
Everybody was getting a little squirrely this spring, as we tried to out dance Covid 19 by staying at home. It helped some that March, April and the first of May were cold and pretty wet here. But then finer weather arrived.
Kids were still at home, supposedly learning remotely, but the outdoors beckoned. Playgrounds were still closed, and it took a bit of imagination to find things to do.
Some children on my granddaughter's street took things into their own hands, and built a little scene that they could control. Love this bit of whimsy in a world that isn't whimsical at all.
The construction/installation is now obscured by grasses and perennials, but it's a good memory from a season where there weren't many.

In terms of whimsy, I'm thinking of recalling an earlier pandemic by referring to the toxic lords of North and South Trump and Bolsonaro as ... TB.
