🌅 Sunset at Ocean Beach on March 16th, the evening before distancing in San Francisco. A surfer calls it a night(1). A minute later, clear dark blue to yellow and orange gradient on the horizon, reflected by the wet sand(2 click the image for wallpaper original)
Earlier that day (a Monday) the mayor had held a press conference to announce the shelter-in-place guidelines. Near the end she literally said:
“This is not the time to panic.” https://youtube.com/watch?t=3165&v=_VwHUvVyO_M
Which of course is exactly what authority figures say in natural disaster movies, right before everything goes horribly wrong. I went to the store and stocked up on groceries for 2-3 weeks, just in case.
Drove to the beach and watched the sun set, not knowing when that too might be forbidden.
