22. Write 6 handwritten letters to my grandparents.

The first of my six letters goes into the mail today. I wrote a letter to my maternal Grandparents. Maw Maw and Paw Paw as they are known to me. Writing the letter was an interesting experience. The words came smoothly. I basically just gave them an update on what Sadie and I have been doing since we moved to Kentucky a year ago. I didn't ask that they write back or anything but I hope that they do.

I may have broken my rule a little on this one by using my computer to write the letter. I did that so that I would have a record of it later on. Hunter S. Thompson, one of my favorite writers and journalists, has been, at a late stage in his life, able to reproduce volumes of his correspondence with the people in his life in encyclopedic form. For some reason that idea appeals to me.
