One of my hobbies

Back when I was a child, my father gave me a great interest in literature. We were the only family to speak a foreign language in my neighborhood (we kept away from the other families my father immigrated with).

From that time I had an interest in paper. Not books really (though I like them too) but I liked the feel of old parchment and thick sheets of vellum.

Now one of his friends (my father passed away eight years ago) has sent me a strange pile of pages, I can't really make heads or tails of what it is. Actually I did not even recognize the name (the handwriting was poor, but even when I discerned the characters there I did not know who it was).

I do not know but I suspect that subjecting this paper to bright light and pressure might damage it, so I will wait to get my camera up to make a scan. Maybe a fellow here can establish where this comes from.

Hello World :-D

This is where I'm writing my blog from now on. I hope the readers from the other site find me here.

This is where I'll comment on some of my hobbies and interests. Feel free to comment.
