Love it! I have a box of letters from college pen pals that I cherish. I too couldn’t afford long-distance calls so I wrote to friends and friends-of-friends throughout college. One of my pen pals quickly became one of my favorite people in the world. He’s my chosen “auntie” and taught me more about living loudly and proudly than anyone I’ve ever met. And thankfully his crazy ass is still alive and kicking! :-) Keep those letters, Dan. They’re worth more than gold. Cheers!

Absolutely! I only wonder who will be interested in them when we are long gone.

Ephemera collectors at the worst. Trusted friends and family at the best. :-)
