The Deep Dark Forest { 2 } |
included with the letters were a few pictures of her trip to Oregon. She was in Oregon while I was in Oztralia. She and my youngest brother and sister and my step father Duane were meeting her brother Doyle, my uncle Doyle while I was being adopted into another family. Doyle, is mother's brother from grandfather's first marriage. She never met him until about 5 years ago. I never met him at all. The letter was inspired by a phone conversation we had earlier in the week. She described pulling off the road side in Oregon to discover that the United States has a rain forest of its own. I was discovering the Queensland Rainforest at the time. She described flying in Uncle Doyle's experimental plane, and Dax my little (15) brother flying it, and also Duane. I mentioned flying in increasingly smaller airplanes as Randy and I went further off the beaten path. And she told me, just like she reiterated in her letter: Doesn't Doyle look like my Dad? so I look at these pictures and it breaks my heart because, honestly, I don't remember. |
