Editorials

One of the lessons we learned during the pandemic was about the collective good.

In the same way that factories in, say, Ohio can cause acid rain that kills fish in the Adirondacks, we learned that infection does not follow state lines or national borders.

COVID-19 spread around the world. And each person’s willingness to follow public-health guidance was crucial to saving others from illness and perhaps death.

We also learned the value of scientific research. Science is not perfect. Hypotheses rise and fall as inquiry persists.

This painting — a 12-by-36-inch acrylic on canvas — was painted from photographs, actual sketches at the park, and from a feeling in the mind of the park. Where we used to live, on a good day I could walk from our home to the park and the old welcome center and back home in about four hours.
