Happened upon this video, and found it mesmerizing and moving - hope you enjoy it as much as I did

Wise men say only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Oh, shall I stay, would it be a sin
Oh, if I can't help falling in love with you?

 

Like a river flows, surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes, some things are meant to be

 

Take my hand, take my whole life too
Oh, for I can't help falling in love with you

 

Oh, like a river flows, surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes, some things are meant to be

 

Oh, take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
Oh, for I can't help falling in love with you

DEATH OF AN iPAD

Below is the place of the unfortunate incident

It is too bad that there is not a video of the passing of the iPad.  Although it would have been a bit humiliating for yours truly, I believe that it would have been hilarious! The picture above is my sister's backyard pool in Palm Springs.  I was Face-Time-ing with some family members, showing them the pool, the landscaping and the small grassy area past the pool where we played hacky sack. What is only partially shown here is a small shallow wading area that makes an L-shape to the left of the main pool above. I was holding the iPad above my head as I walked from the grassy area around the wading pool back toward the pool.  As I was looking up, I cut the corner too close on the wading pool.  I stepped in, went down, and the iPad flew.  The good news is that it landed on the tile next to the pool; the bad news is that the iPad holder stuck to the tile and the iPad slid right out into the pool!!!  The water was so cold that nobody felt like diving in to make a rescue, so the iPad soaked in the cold, salt water for a while until the kids finally fished it out.

There was an attempt at resuscitation as shown below, but alas without success. 

 

The one small saving grace is that we had won the iPad for having the lowest month utility bill in our solar-assisted neighborhood.  The bad news Glenn, is that your comprehensive song list now sleeps with the fishes.  RIP
