It was a wintery cold day in March when we drove out to drop off the artwork. Due to the pandemic, we had a slotted time for drop off, in the parking lot, with masks on. Strange times indeed. One of the Guild Hall employees came to the car and removed it from the back seat. We had our lunch in the parking lot, then drove off in search of a beach to enjoy Long Island for a moment. Bundled up, we found a log to have coffee on while staring out at the rough seas. It was a cloudy, chilly day but then the sun broke through reminding us that summer is around the corner. It has been a long winter of being holed up in our apartment in Brooklyn. While people are out and about in other parts of the country during the pandemic, we were extra cautiou. Living so close to a cemetery (Green-Wood Cemetery) we felt very aware of the death toll the world has experienced. So this little adventure meant a lot to us.
