FRANK CHILINSKI, Publisher BRENDAN BERUBE, Editor Finding a silver lining This editorial is being written immediately af- ter our Editor returned from a walk around town. While we are all undergoing a complete change in the way we live our lives, and the reason is scary and horrifying, there is a silver lining. This coronavirus has caused a camaraderie among people that seems to break through barriers of religion, race, political beliefs, socioeconomic status or where we live in the world. We truly are all in this together. During our walk, we saw entire families slow- ly strolling up and down side streets, with no real destination, simply enjoying the sun and warmer weather. It was nice to slow down enough to notice Courtesy the cracks in the sidewalks, or notice the intricate Drawing D.C. woodwork on the old houses we passed. Seeing the community through a new, calmer, less stressed pair It’s that time of year, when sixth graders at the Sandwich Central School start gearing up for Washington, D.C., each student becoming a resident expert on a landmark. Here they are drawing a floor map of the National Mall. Way to go, of eyes was interesting. While a cloud of uncertainty sixth graders. hangs above all of us, it’s clear that despite the un- known, shoulders have dropped a bit, and we have been forced to slow down and just be present. These are stressful times, no doubt, but it hasn’t gone unno- ticed that the majority of people seem to appear more relaxed.
