Our Toronto Star newspaper featured this article about a little blue suitcase discovered in the basement of a house this grandson was clearing out. His grandfather has passed away at 98 and the 99 year old grandma is in a convalescent home at the moment having recently broken her hip. He decided to create a blog featuring all the precious love letters his grandparents wrote each other over a period of years during World War II. I read a couple of them and it is an endearing piece of history. Maybe you will enjoy reading them too.
Here is the link.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm....
Let's step back a moment.... Consider if these, were _our_ old Love Letters....... Would we want them, to be published, on a blog?.....On the World Wide Net?.....For all and sundry, to read?
Maybe Yes. Maybe No. But these 2 people, do not have any say, in this.
And it just doesn't seem fair, to me.
I know, I am not in agreement with the other Commenters.
But....
I think my view, is worth sharing... I hope you do too.
