I was meeting a friend for a socially distant slice of pizza and I took this picture of a corner of my block, because the sky was blue, the clouds billowy, and you can see a glorious expanding ginkgo tree. Still alive! Yay! (Does she mean the tree or herself? Both, I guess. And everyone I know, although sadly not the relatives of people I know. This virus is a monster.)
