Fun Friday Photo: Losing People

Old man hiking in woods with the words "The older I get the more I regret all the people I've lost over the years. Maybe being a trail guide wasn't such a great idea after all."

So as a fan of black humor to help us through difficult times, I really enjoyed this meme. Hope you do, too.

I woke up recently to this pastoral scene of mist on the lake where I am so lucky to live. Scroll down to watch the video version. Enlarge it to full-screen for the best effect.
