All the new pandemic graves, 1
There were more new graves at this cemetery than I’d ever noticed before, surely a result of the 626 COVID deaths* in Lubbock.
I had a philosophical argument with myself over even making this image (and the two that will follow). It seemed intrusive in a way that my normal cemetery images don’t. But it also seemed historically important, also in a way that my regular cemetery images don’t.
History won.

Shrine, after the virus
I have a bit of a fascination with this shrine. I stop in from time to time to see if there’s anything new worth noting. (You may recall it from this post.) When I dropped in last month, it all looked the same as before, only with the addition of that package of sanitizing wipes.
