When in third grade we had an exchange student from Scotland. We exchanged letters with what would have been his classmates in Aberdeen. It was exciting learning about people's lives in other worlds.
I continued communication with my "Pen Pal" through high school but then lost touch with her.
When I was a teen (early to mid 1970s) I had around 100 pen pals form all over the world. I kid you not. I went through a roil of stamps about every 2 months. My parents used to buy me a roll of stamps as part of a stocking stuffer for Christmas. And a roll as one of my birthday presents.
As a tax payer and resident of Deschutes County I am tired of my tax dollars being used to clean up the filth the homeless people leave behind. If this is a deterrent for them living there then we won’t have to clean it up again. Thus saving tax payer dollars and the rocks are a better look.
