The parked cars lining the road grows up the mountain and wraps around the bend where it only continues to grow.

Only a few minutes drive into the park the line of cars parked on the edge of the road begins as overflow for the overwhelmed lots.

My friend drove down from Idaho to visit. She's been in isolation for weeks, we've been in isolation for weeks and she decided the best way to celebrate the end of the semester was to drive to Tempe. She also is a certified cosmetologist, and none of the hair salons are open, so we all got kitchen table haircuts.

The welcome sign situated at the entrance to Harriman State Park appears unaltered. However, this is not the same Harriman State Park it was a few months ago which they will soon find out.

“This week hundreds of Indigenous students from across the country would have been taking to a stage in Toronto for a special dance performance. But like just about every other event these days – it was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. That didn’t stop organizers from Outside Looking In from putting on a once in a lifetime show.” #IndigenousStories

A sign has been added to the entrance informing people that they must reduce their speed due to the level of congestion within the park.

At the entrance of Harriman State Park a road block is set up with signs informing people of the safety precautions that must be taken (social distancing and the wearing of masks) and the parking guidelines that are to be followed.

Journal Assignment You are now a historian. Starting on Monday, April 13, you will be keeping a written journal. Once a week (or more if you would like), you will detail what you are seeing in the news. How the world, how the United States, how your friends, neighbors, and family are responding to this pandemic. You are creating a primary source that can be used by people in the future to learn about our lives during this crisis from your unique perspective. You can also use one of your other talents as you see fit. Drawing, poetry, etc. Be authentic, be honest, be reflective. Guiding Questions: You can write anything you like about your experience. The following is a list of potential things you can respond to. 1. What did the government announce/declare/implement today? I. Does it make sense? II. Does it impact your life? Why or why not? III. How did your family respond? 2. What is open in your neighborhood? What is closed? How does this affect you? 3. What does your neighborhood look like? Are people walking around? 4. How is today different from yesterday for you, your family, our nation, the world? 5. Did you see anything today that gave you hope? Anxiety? Fear? I. In person, in the news, or on social media? 6. What does your family need today that you might not have, have enough of, or have no access to acquire? 7. What has been your experience with distance learning? Do you think this experience will impact you when you’re back in an actual classroom?

This virus is an awakening. We saw how much better our planet is for just this short time without our usual insults. I swear the birds sing louder. We are discovering that some of us are very strong- heroes. We started to think, and create, and find ways to change, and move forward positively. We shared food, and masks, and hope. There were sadly also those who haven’t grown, and didn’t want to see the virus, so they looked away, unable to handle it, causing many deaths. These same people want everything to go back to the way it was. The way, if you are paying attention, it can never be again. They are like toddlers without their binky, having tantrums, frightened of moving forward to our inevitable new reality. We will never have an opportunity like this again to really see ourselves. We were forced to look in the mirror. We can’t look away. We have to fix our face.

As I walked past the Key Food grocery store in downtown Jersey City, I saw hand-made signs in the windows of an apartment across the street. Normally these would be expressions of gratitude to health care workers, but these were directed at the grocery store. It expressed how hard it has been to get food at times during the lockdown, and how much we have learned to appreciate the people who work in grocery stores.

Maya wanted to celebrate her 6th birthday at the pool. Per state law, Arizona pools were closed. I even tried local hotels to see if any would let me rent a room in order to access the pool. No luck. In the end, we decided to bend some local rules and try to swim in Rio Salado, gaining access via the boat launch. We swam in the warm water for about an hour before a park official warned us that the police could ticket us. It was almost nap time for the 1 yo, and we were ready to leave anyway. It wasn't a pool, but we did get to swim. The day was declared a success by my 6yo who declared it "the best birthday ever."

7.5 weeks into the official quarantine in AZ, and about 6 weeks after public parks closed, I let my 1yo visit a closed park in Scottsdale, AZ. (El Dorado Park in Scottsdale).

t feels like the streets of Boston haven’t been this empty since the cows (apocryphally) laid out the paths centuries ago. Aram Boghosian, a regular freelance photographer and videographer for the Boston Globe, shot aerial video with a drone over several Boston hotspots on Monday and Tuesday. On a normal weekday afternoon, the city bustles with workers and tourists and commuters alike. But in the footage, the city sits nearly empty. It’s a ghost of what it was just a week ago, before Gov. Charlie Baker banned gatherings of over 25 people, established tight restrictions on stores and restaurants, and closed the schools in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. Newbury Street and Faneuil Hall Marketplace are nearly devoid of shoppers. The seagulls on Summer Street seem to outnumber the pedestrians. Traffic is breezy in and out of the city, and an empty Fenway Park won’t see a pitch anytime soon. Only a handful of people walk and bike across Boston Common, which hosted a rally of over 13,000 densely packed people less than three weeks ago. It seems unimaginable now *Drone footage of Boston during quarantine

The beginning of Spring would normally have the North End and downtown Boston streets bustling with locals and visitors taking in the season after a long Winter. As the business shutdowns and stay-at-home advisories associated with the COVID-19 outbreak have gone into effect, the streets are very quiet with very few moving vehicles, and only a smattering of social distancing locals walking around. All the tourist and community sites are nearly abandoned as shown in this daytime photo.

Kids around the country are using chalk to spread positive messages on the sidewalk. This image taken in the Jamaica Plain Neighborhood of Boston is just one example. The link below is to a video that shows more images like this from around the city. https://www.nbcboston.com/news/coronavirus/kids-spread-cheer-on-sidewalks-during-coronavirus-pandemic/2096368/

This short video, created using the app One Second Everday (1SE), is a collection of photographs each day taken during the initial weeks of the stay at home order in Boston. The images demonstrate the ways that life shifted during this time. For example, many people spent more time than ever inside, took up baking bread or cooking more elaborate meals, and began to wear homemade masks anytime they would leave the house. *A short video, created using the app One Second Everday (1SE), is a collection of photographs

One of the most interesting things to watch during this pandemic for me is the rise of designer face masks. Ever since the CDC advised personal protective gear (PPE) to prevent the spread of the coronavirus, people have begun making DIY face masks or purchasing them from retailers ranging from small to large. There have been luxury face masks around before the COVID-19 pandemic—the most notable example in my mind is the all-Gucci outfit singer Billie Eilish wore to the 2020 Grammys that included a mask covered in the Gucci logo, which I think was simply for fashion despite the Grammys occurring in late January, around when people in the United States began to be on alert for the novel coronavirus. I had seen some designer face masks worn in photos compilations of “Instagram rich kids,” who are usually children of business moguls, celebrities, or royals, but had never seen them reach enough popularity to be worn by people in my social stratosphere (white & upper-middle class/upper-class) until now. What has been most fascinating to me are designer face masks produced by individuals, not by these large fashion labels. During this pandemic, most major luxury brands are not selling face masks. Instead, most “designer” face masks being sold are made by individuals profiting off the prestige or popularity of a brand. For example, on Etsy, where searching “designer face mask” yields 14,000 items for sale, people are selling “designer-inspired” or “stylish design” face masks covered in logos by companies such as Louis Vuitton, Gucci, or Chanel. Another example is face masks created using actual designer fabric, which seem to be much less common than the designer rip-offs. One of my neighbors who owns and runs a high-end boutique created a small batch of face masks using vintage designer fabric from similar brands like Hermes and Louis Vuitton. When my mother and I ran into her on a walk, as she showed us the masks, she half-joked to us that we needed a “going-out” mask, a simple mask for going providing protection that you don’t mind getting messed up, and a “social” mask, a “fancy” mask like hers meant to be seen by others. I have not seen any “social” masks or designer masks myself being used out in the world (granted, I try not to leave the house as much as possible), but the popularity of designer masks can be clearly seen online. The fact that most of these “designer” masks are projects made by small creators is incredibly fascinating to me. The social capital that comes with owning something with designer logos is so strong that it is persisting during a time that people are going out of their way to create designer-rip offs for products that are not even on sale right now. I initially thought that because the pandemic we are living through is such a “time of exception” that people would be so concerned with just surviving that any social capital that comes with owning luxury clothing would be eschewed, but instead people are finding new ways to flex their wealth. Because most of these designer-logo masks sold by individuals are affordable for almost everyone, it will be interesting to see as time goes on how the amount of social capital that comes with owning one of these masks changes.

Describe the image and what it tells us about the pandemic: I created this drawing because my environmental art professor had asked us to draw the world we would like to see and what's in the way. I wanted to go back to school, see my friends and professors again, so I decided to draw what is in the way. I depicted the lack of COVID-19 tests, the people who claim it is a hoax, the people flocking to Florida for Spring Break, and my own personal lung issues that prevent me from being able to take the risk. I'm sure that are many people who feel the same- and it is scary, and I hate the uncertainty. This image shows some of the many obstacles and challenge facing people amid the COVID-19 pandemic. I made this drawing using paints.

As worry about the food supply grows and money is more of a worry for the average person, unemployment is at rates so high it is hard for the average person to comprehend, many people have resurrected the World War II tradition of the Victory Garden. This is the garden my partner has started in the front of our home, the sunniest patch on the whole property. My partner lost his job as a direct result of the pandemic and so finds himself with less money and more time. He decided it was a perfect opportunity to try to grow our own food especially since we have already experienced shortages of various items and have no reason to believe that will change any time soon. He is planning on adding several more buckets and though the buckets themselves come from the Home Depot we are endeavoring to shop for plants, soil etc at local nurseries whenever possible so that we keep what money we are spending circulating within our own community.

A discussion of how the state of federalism in the US has changed and how this has become evident by the handling of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Federalism in the Times of Coronavirus Today's smallest and most basic tenets of federalism as well as the different forms that it may take have the largest and most impactful implications for a system of government under stress. Moreover, due to the extenuating circumstances brought about by the COVID-19 Pandemic, the costs of unstable federalist infrastructures are alarmingly high.

Poster of photo with comic rhyme warning people to be careful. This is the text on the poster: "Six Feet Of Distance/ Is What I'll Allow/ For If You Haven't Heard/ IT'S A PRETTY SERIOUS SITUATION RIGHT NOW" Spotted on May 12, 2020

HUM402 The image depicts the creation of Pandemic Monopoly by a Hobart resident. The homemade board game uses toilet paper as currency, referring to the toilet paper shortage seen across Tasmanian supermarkets. The board game presents players with the opportunity to 'own' key Hobart locations. However, instead of mortgage, houses and hotels, the game allows players to buy hospitals and clinics to place on the properties. Centrelink, the Australian governments social security service, features heavily on the board game, indicating the rise in unemployment due to the pandemic. Whilst being used for comical purposes, the game also critiques the Tasmanian governments early handling of Covid-19 crisis via a chance card, which states "You have a fever, dry cough and Pneumonia to boot but despite having all of the symptoms, you haven't knowingly come into contact with a known carried so they won't test you for Covid-19. The Royal Hobart Hospital sends you home. Get out of iso [isolation] free." This refers to the Tasmanian government in early stages of the Covid-19 pandemic refusing to test individuals who had not been in contact with a known case, or had not left the country.

This meme resonated with me because I'd noticed several other aspects of society that reverted to Austen-esque practices during COVID-19. Emails became more like letters; personal and sometimes lengthy. People really began to enjoy walks in pairs again. It forced us all to slow down and consider one another more.

Procreate is the bestselling iPad app for artists. When lockdown began in Australia, they launched a month-long campaign to encourage people to draw every day, and share their artwork with the community. The idea behind the Procreate Care Pack was to respond to the situation in a positive way, and keep people connected with one another through an isolating time. It resonated strongly with Procreate artists all over the world.
