Isolation Antidotes (1): Glorious grasses

With all the unprecedented travel restrictions in place and forbidden contact with loved ones, though they are well within physical reach, I find myself delving back through archived photos that I’ve not yet shared with you, and I am using the opportunity to open a new category. I expect that there will be many more to come, but this will be my first. I made this photo during a brief rest stop along the bank of the Mustinka River in Otter Tail County, Minnesota, in June 2018. I remember clearly the wind in the grasses and the sun on my back. You may expect more from recent times in Minnesota, as there seems to be a very good chance that we may not be permitted to fly back to spend the summer there, as we have for as long as I can remember, and quite possibly others from my various travels. Let us cherish the memories—and each other, as we exercise caution and settle down to wait out the terrible measures we must take for as long as this lasts. Stay safe!
