It was in a small envelope, printed neatly in pencil, on a piece of lined, yellow paper stripped from a mini legal pad. It started, “Dear Mr. Sax, My name is Cole. I’m 15 years old, and I just moved to Tucannon Road this September.” Turns out this young man lives across the street from a piece of property I own near Pomeroy. He wrote me to ask if he could hike through my land to get to the top of a nearby hill, promising that he would respect the area if allowed access. “I will not hunt, camp or litter, and I will be thoughtful of whose land it is,” he continued.

Instead, he chose a different path, and reached out to me in order to “do the right thing.” Cole’s message gives me hope that there is still plenty of good in the world, that there are young men and women who will grow up to become our future leaders, and parents out there who are preparing them for that responsibility. That feeling of hope swelled inside me, filling my heart and brightening my outlook.
