I feel ya - I’ve been out of the house maybe four times in the past three weeks that wasn’t after midnight. One was for the last photo challenge, which was much needed for my mental well-being. The post-midnight walks keep me sane.

I need to just go out immediately after waking up one of these days. Hard to make it out with the baby though, and having her with me makes me feel more vulnerable when it’s weird hours. Sighhhh. We live here For the walkability, and right now it’s a curse

Someone should make a “COVID Walk Score” site - that’d be an interesting one to see.
City Lab had a neat project where they encouraged people to draw “Mental Maps” of their neighborhood, as affected by CoronaVirus - maybe an idea for another thread but this is about what my world looks like right now.

Oh interesting. What’s the idea there? Like where you picture the highest risk areas being?

I thought of it more as a heat-map for where I’ve been spending time, I think it’s very open to interpretation/as you want to approach - this was the original authors post about mental maps.

Shadow of me and dog. Bless whoever put up the smiley with the mask, it makes me smile. Also traffic was not absent but was noticeably lighter than usual.
There’s been a drought so we’re making our own April showers here (not my flowers)

Kind of triangles. An attempt at a victory garden. Nothing seems to be sprouting though (the seeds were all old ones we had laying around)

Are you keeping the soil moist? A spray bottle can really help at the seed starting stage.
Also, try old radish seeds if you have any. Mine from 2015 are growing happily when nothing else sprouted including things stored much better.

We did radishes last year and realized that none of us like radishes, lol. I’ll check around for a spray bottle but I think they’ve been kept reasonably moist since Kiddo has been using his pool a lot which means the hose (with adjustable attachment thingy) gets turned on.

Mr. Meer, eternal pessimist, thinks they’re weed seeds. I think those were supposed to be squash and cucumbers, we’ll see how they develop.

My in-laws went for a walk around the falls today and it was deserted. How do I load a video that they sent me via text?

If you can save the video to your phone, you should be able to upload to YouTube it Vimeo or whatever. OMD doesn’t do direct video upload, that kind of storage would cost a fortune sadly
