PORT ANGELES — Erik Evans plays his bagpipes while walking around his neighborhood near Lopez Avenue and South Chase Street in Port Angeles on Wednesday, April 1, 2020.
Evans, who described himself as “not good at sitting on my hands,” said he would often give parking lot concerts at numerous places around the city, but state stay-at-home directives due to the COVID-19 pandemic prompted him to avoid public places and restrict his daily performance to the area around the Port Angeles Public Library and Holy Trinity Lutheran Church.
He said he typically does his piping stroll to serenade his neighbors about noon.
