Think week we have an intriguing mystery thanks to photographer Suzy Hazelwood at Pexels.com. Is this stack of old letters a treasured keepsake? Or perhaps it is the surprising find by those left behind after the death of a loved one? Tell me your tale in 280 characters or less and post a link in the comments, and I‘ll see you at the roundup next week. Remember, the title characters don’t count. Have fun!

I have been known to burn such things. Very true to life. Some things are easier to let go of than others.
