[QUOTE="PonyGirl65, post: 686260, member: 20087"] A letter from my son arrived today, written the day he arrived at prison. He gives a very detailed step-by-step narrative of his journey. I had a tough time reading parts of it out loud to my husband, but also there were parts that made us both laugh: "I got a glimpse of XYZ-Prison as we drove by (not the place where he is, but a different facility they drove past) It is the oldest prison in the state. It looks like a castle!! It's not massive or anything but the architecture is very....dark ages" And then, describing the "perp walk" into the cell block after booking: "We are led into a hallway - the biggest hallway I have ever seen! I cannot see either end! We walk into this huge area. Before I decide yonder end will never appear, we are told to turn left." He has a "cellie" who is also at prison for the first time ever, and he is grateful for that. I can understand the comfort there, both of them are experiencing the same kind of thing. I was grateful for his precise detail in his letter. It was a comfort to me, somehow. The way he wrote it, I felt like I was right beside him! Peace [/QUOTE]
