What's not said leaves a lot to the imagination doesn't it.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why your Grandpa's cryptic journal entries intrigue me so much. My mind strives to create the details. Perhaps I was born a couple of generations later than I should have been.
I am in the same boat. I have the advantage that I spent time with him and time on the ranch. But still there are a lot of questions left unanswered. I appreciate you sharing the journey with me. And by the way, I'm not peaking ahead. I want each week to be a surprise.
