If I were to write a letter today

It's a good way to start a letter ... with a story.

I'd also write about the crocus. They're blooming(!) in small spaces, with just two or three flowers, and in mass plantings that blanket the ground.

What a welcome sight.

But the owl. That's the story of the day. It's wingspan, nearly 4 feet wide (I checked), was what caught my eye. It flew though the trees, with not a sound to give it away, circled back and landed on a branch, close to the trunk of the tree, and faced us.

Bird watching us watch it. What a sight.

So I'll use the story in a letter.

April is just two days away, and with it comes Nat'l Card and Letter Writing Month.

Give it a try, because as much as the people I write to might enjoy getting mail, writing and sending mail can be equally gratifying. It's another way to say hello.

What if you don't have an owl story?

Imagine you're sitting across the table from the person you're writing to. What would you say? Write about that new recipe you tried, a program you're enjoying, or that project you're working on. That's what I do.

And send it.

Because people love getting mail, they really do.

People also love stories, and you've got some good ones.
