Not with the frequency of Savannah, but on his own regular monthly schedule. \u00a0To my surprise, his letters were two or three times longer than the page or so I&#8217;d been used to. \u00a0The additional pages were exclusively about coins. \u00a0In my spare time, I&#8217;d visit the computer center and do a bit of research on my own. I&#8217;d search for certain coins, collect the history, and send the information back in a letter of my own. I swear, the first time I did that , I thought I saw tears on the next letter he sent me. \u00a0No, not really- I know it was just my imagination since he never mentioned what i&#8221;d done &#8211; but I wanted to believe that he pored over the data with the same intensity he used when studying the Greysheet.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;
