Chalk Message on Sidewalk During COVID-19

Description

A digital photograph that shows a chalk message written on the sidewalk at the intersection of Little Bridge and Mill Streets. The photograph was taken looking down Mill Street, and the intersection with Little Bridge is visible in the background, above the chalk message in the foreground. The photograph was taken at night, so most of the image is very dark. The chalk is the focus of the image, and is visible due to a yellow light shining on it, presumably from a streetlight. The chalk reads "Enjoy your time at HOME, #Forever Friendly". To the left of the message a cartoon smile is drawn. The chalk is either yellow or white, but the yellow light makes it look very yellow. To the left of the chalk a concrete wall-like structure is visible (it's the short wall surrounding the plants by the James Naismith statue on Mill St). In the far background some blue and white lights are visible from the streetlights and the storefront lights. There are a few cars parked on the sides of the street in the background. Most of the background is out of focus. This image was captured during the COVID-19 pandemic.
