Notes

Item description from donor: "Due to the COVID-19 virus and mask mandates:
Various clean (new & laundered) masks hanging on new hooks in the laundry room (near the garage door) for quick finding on the way out the door."

Series description from donor: "The masks photo was taken in my laundry room by myself. The hooks were recently installed and masks hung for easy access on the way out of the door. Multiples are needed as masks are used and dropped in the laundry hamper. Initially, my husband and I kept our masks in several different places but found that this centralized location works best and is handy for when masks have been washed. One of the new things our society has adjusted to as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The other two photos were taken by me from the stands where I sat as my twin nieces graduated. I put more description with each photo, but this was an important family event and graduation was completed reorganized as a result of the pandemic: outside (HOT temps), social distancing, and "ushers" escorted families to seating in groups of six and spaced six feet apart, side-to-side, and one empty row between is seated row. I used to teach at this high school, and this is the first time of which I'm aware when the audience didn't just file in all together and chose their own seats, also going early and saving seats for others. This time--no seat saving and your group of six had to be together, held outside the stadium, and admitted into the stadium spaced away from other groups. It was a marvel of organization. Leaving the stadium was a little messier, but people tried not to get too close to other groups."
