If there were thousands in Florida alone there has to be thousands more all crossed the country that were unable to vote. I know covid kind of randomly popped up and we couldn't really prepare for things like this, but as a country Im sure we could find out a way to deal with this.

I can understand why he wouldn't want to mail in votes but knowing that he could have at least delayed the primary and didn't is a bit alarming. This almost shows that he doesn't care about that large group of peoples' voices that won't be heard unless he makes some accommodation.

This was just ridiculous to me. If you lay on your side in bed and cry all day because you weren't able to vote for something that could be selected prior to the votes anyway then you are worried about the wrong things. Get your work done for the day, go see something you haven't seen yet, go talk to people and socialize. This is a huge problem in our country right now. A large percentage of people are way to caught up in politics and spend too much time talking about stupid stuff that they have absolutely 0 control over.

This shows how during different stages of life you go through different stages of admiration, excitement, and care free living in the moment. Then later in life you face the reflection of all the things you use to do "back in the day". When looking back at these pictures you see that the dad chuckles. This is to show that he is reflecting on a good memory. Physical pictures are always a good thing to hold onto because they will always remind you of a certain time or place in your life that you might want to look back on later in your reflection stage in life.

Even though he had to take this route home and it was kind of routine at this point, walking can be a hobby or even considered to be therapeutic to some people. Taking this route at a young age could've formed this for Garnette.
