Bag o' masks for COVID. January 2022. |
Doing my part to contribute to the historical record for COVID, I present my bag o' masks, above.
Each has a history.
My daughter, Kit, made the yellow and aquamarine-navy masks for me. I like the cheery fabrics she chose.
The sage green terry masks below were the first cloth masks I bought, back in Tucson.

The Alabama mask is one of three I collected at Alabama welcome centers.

I have others, including a Black Lives Matter mask that I bought from an employee who made them, at an enlightened Best Buy in Jefferson City, Missouri. Some employees at that Best Buy wore this mask, and it impressed the hell out of me that the Best Buy management in Jefferson City supported their employees in doing so.

I had a lovely mask that a friend made for me; it had a watercolorish fish design on it. I gave this mask to my mother; it was so beautiful. Alas, it's been lost to the unknown somewhere.

I still have the hat. And the small black bag.
