In the soft lighting of dusk, the vibrant atmosphere of Lake Merritt transforms into one that is romantic and peaceful.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

This is the darkiest day for New Zealand, especially this is the 21st century, and when the Chilleans were all saved after being trapped for so long.
Each man had a story. The young was only 17.
Thanks for your message.
