SOCIAL DISTANCING?

A note to our readers: The baby shower and museum reception photos on the Sunday Morning page today are from previous parties. If you are “socially distancing” at home — playing cards, watching tv, reading, working, working out—send us a photo at hwallace@oklahoman.com. Look out for each other and be well! Thank you for reading The Oklahoman!
