Wow, you have better masks than I do.

My brown bandana rides my neck everytime I leave home "just in case" and 
I have a box of surgical-styles in my vehicle as well as (sometimes) a 
hand-sewn native-american-themed "fancy" one!  As it gets colder, it is 
a relief (sometimes) to mask-up when I exit my vehicle for a store... 
not so much once I get inside (as overheating season begins).

I'm surprised that designer masks didn't become a big thing sooner than 
it did.  Though I remember imagining it was a pretty short-term 
(Months?) thing.  i'm sure there is more creativity out there than I am 
aware of.  Mary's grandson (twin) is big into his masks.   they were <4 
when this started and he often wants to keep his on once he gets home.   
To him it is (mostly) just apparel?   Matches his underoos (which he 
prefers to wear on the outside) methinks.

I have this vague memory of being in public without my bandana "up" 
early this summer...   strange times, no?
