A 10-year old with a pencil, a single piece of paper, and a lot of nerve walked down 6th street in Two Harbors, Minnesota towards Agate Bay.

Glancing at the printing press in the back office he placed the story containing impressive penmanship on the counter. Fifty years later, I was writing about high school football games in Texas.
