This is the original 20 members. How many can you identify? I can’t identify them all. Some you can’t see. This is my apartment. I pushed my furniture back and set up these rented tables and chairs.

While I was looking for that photograph I pulled out a few others. These three shots are from an appearance we made on, of all places, Fox News. This was in 1990 I believe, and it was before they showed their true colors.

Sadly, I also came across lot of photographs of people who are no longer with us. I think I might do a collage one day. This is Danny and Leslie (aka Mrs. Hippie Queen).

I took a different route on my walk yesterday. My plan was to take pictures of the empty Times Square. I went uptown on 7th Avenue, and back home on 8th. What I found was when you get to the 30s, both avenues have been kinda taken over by people dealing with mental illness and anger issues. I wasn’t entirely comfortable, I must admit. I walked in the street through those stretches, (and it was safe for me to do so).

Even though it was mostly empty, pictures taken during the day just don’t convey the post-apocalyptic feel of Times Square. So I took a picture of a side street, showing no one going to the shows. And …

The steps to the main Post Office building taken over by pigeons. I love pigeons so this I was happy to see (and not the unfortunate homeless person).

For the most part, I haven’t seen people practicing social distancing much. But the people on this line for Whole Foods were being good neighbors. I went a different route on my walk today and it was a little scary! I will post about it tomorrow.

Very perplexing. Yes chicken? They have another restaurant, I learned, with poulet in the name so maybe they are saying that place is open? Or, are they urging us to eat chicken for some reason? The signs below are for a movie theatre that is, of course, closed. The quote is a little off, but I’m guessing they abbreviated it to fit.

I’ve been going out every day for a long walk and to pick up food or whatever else I need. My friends have been on me about this. The walks are okay, but they said I should limit my trips to the stores. Their admonitions are working. I’m going to start ordering in. One of the things I’m going to do is order a candy pack from Economy Candy. They are struggling like everyone else and the call has gone out for people to order candy packs. What I love about this is you don’t know what you’re going to get. They’re like these mystery boxes I used to order from the back of comic books. The surprise factor was so much fun!

People picking up their dinners to go.
