New Thing 320, New Thing Every Day: Visit Somebody in Jail

As you may remember, I tried to visit two weeks ago, but my friend already had visitors. On my friend Marie Hunter's suggestion, I wrote him a letter, and then got one back from him today. Among other things, he asked me to try to visit again, and today is his one day, so I went over the Boone County Jail at 7:30, giving it a shot.

It worked out this time and we visited for the one-hour limit. Out of respect, I am not going to go into detail, but it was interesting and emotional and a very unique experience for me. Moving forward, I am going to try to write to him every week or so, and visit at least once or twice more. I hope someone would do the same thing for me.
