Comparing attendance info for two months (Feb and July)

I want to create a chart showing the attendance between pre covid (February) and current covid (July) for one of our offices. This is my current search which gets me the data I need but I'm unsure on how to overlap the data so we can see the direct comparison.

| eval Attendance="July"]
[search index="physec_app_lenel" EVDESCR="Access Granted" READERDESC="TOK*" earliest="02/01/2020:01:00:00" latest="02/28/2020:23:00:00"
| eval Attendance="February"]
| timechart span=1w dc(CARDNUM) by Attendance

You should have two series (one called "February" and one called "July") with the same start and end times on a single graph.

All you need to do is adjust the time range of one of the searches so it lines up with the other search.
