social distancing continues to be awesome (79/365d)

very late morning, where brian and i went to spar together (waiting in line means keeping 1 meter distance from one another) while the kids played cards calmly and quietly.  and another fun drawing webinar.

sushi outside for dinner... except we only had 8 nori sheets, so we ended up making (much more fashionable) sushi bowls. meanwhile i tested some new software to try to help make more remote quintet videos, and one particular one ... could not even (for example) change aspect ratio, or anything, but it could...
put my face on a hot hair balloon....
...very useful
or as Mr. Gilbreth would say "not of general interest"

and more camera stuff.... i got my reverse ring today, so i could try it out, and have theodore make the grass wave back and forth so i could try to capture it in motion......

these grasses were NOT waving in the wind
but i immediately had to turn my lens back around, because theodore was reading the paper, an article about corona virus that ingrid had dropped in an enevelope over our fence, riding by on her laufrad-scooter that she bought because she is in so much pain with her hip.
too cute and concentrated not to capture
then the light was so cool, and they were really playing so very nicely that i took some dusty pictures of henry and felix playing soccer
Full action
Attacking the goal
Then, when we were all inside after reading Robin Hood, we found Nina alone outside with a small bottle of bubbly and a single glass. She looked lonely, so we decided to join her. Centa was feverishly making candied violets. She thought of making 20 and made over 100. The rest of the eggwhite and sugar had to be used!
a bubbly for one...
Played some Bartok stuff with Theodore and worked on intonation a little. Talked to Klaus about more video ideas, and thought of starting my recording of the next one, but the logistics were a bit too complicated for my late-night head, so I guess I will go to bed early and think about that tomorrow.
