I walked for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention in their Portland OR walk Out of the Darkness. I didn't have anyone to walk with so I brought my camera to keep me company and I made some friends along the way. :) As perhaps the only walker and fundraiser who went to this event alone, I was so encouraged and grateful to meet so many wonderful people from behind the lens of my camera.
