Not an ordinary day at the lake...

My husband and I decided to go out for a day out to silver lakes.It was a wonderful day sunny but not too warm. We packed up our fishing poles and picnic basket and our family dog and ventured out for the day. When we arrived we paid our entrance fee to the park and drove out a little to find an area that was a little out the ways.We finally found a place an parked. There was another truck also parked there near us about three car car length's away and there was a man asleep sitting inside. I had just finished my can soda and decided to place it outside the car since there was no trash can near bye. We unloaded our stuff and ventured out to the lake.At the end of the day when it was time to go home we packed up and walked back to our truck. It was near evening time. When we got back to the truck we noticed that the same truck was still there. That didn't seem too odd what seemed really odd was the fact that the man sitting in it was in the same position as he was earlier this morning.We kind of laughed it off and mentioned "I hope he's not dead" yeah right,I commented. My husband asked me Why don't you walk over and knock on his window to see if he's o.k?I said "no" why don't you?We eventually  decided to notify the park ranger. The Park ranger went to see about the matter.  20 minutes later he came back to let us know that the situation ended up being a suicide.  The man shot himself with a revolver in the head and died instantly.So what ended up being a trip to the lake was also a last day of someones life.
