Fox Squirrels in Ann Arbor at the University of Michigan during my "Squirrel Run" - April 2nd, 2020
With COVID-19 essentially shutting down campuses all across America and the world, there are few normal days to be had. Like most of my colleagues at the University of Michigan, I have been working from home. There is also a "stay at home" order in the state that really strongly encourages people to stay in (to flatten the curve). In the Governor's order, we do have the freedom to participate in outdoor activities - as long as we keep a social distance of 6 feet. I keep at least enough room for the Holy Spirit to drive a car between me and anyone I am with. So today, I went to campus to see and feed my squirrel friends. This is the second time I have made the "Squirrel Run" - I have missed them a great deal. So off to campus I went. I did not get within six feet of anyone NOT a squirrel. I did see my squirrel friend Juli - but we did keep our distance! In regards to the squirrels it was a banner day and I took a lot of pictures during my short time on campus! Besides seeing all the squirrels and feeding them (with a big old bag of peanuts), it was quite exciting. I was able to see Lefty, my favorite three pawed squirrel over by the Law Quad. I did not see the juveniles by Mason Hall, but I did see the squirrels in the scilla field near Martha Cook. Be safe everyone - we will get through this. Sending love and virtual hugs from Ann Arbor, Michigan. Pictures from the University of Michigan on Thursday April 2nd, 2020.
