Surprises

When we lived in Houston, and this was a long time ago, I had a friend who I knew for about three years. Then we moved to Montana. Montana was such a strange place for me, I loved everything about Houston, I felt so out of place in Big Sky Country. I would write this woman letters (1982, way before email) to keep in touch with someone I knew. She just sent me an email wanting to know my mailing address, she had a very old one. She said she found those old letters I had written her and wanted to send them to me. Yesterday a package came in the mail, the old letters. Smelling very musty, like they had been kept in a damp dark place. They were even kept in the order they were received! I was a bit shocked, who does this, keeps letters this long, in order...She said she wanted me to have them as a record of our first years in Montana. I cannot read them for some reason. I tried reading the first one, but put it away after two sentences. These are my words from a different time and place....I don't know, could you read them?
