Stormy Weather!
Today we found 33 cents and 67 bottles and cans.
We had a really bad round of thunderstorms come through the area around 2:30 pm or so.
There were some super heavy downpours and some serious lightning as well. There was also a report of possible tornado touchdown just south of here in the Berwick area. Yikes! An hour later though the cell passed and it became clear and sunny but with a chill in the air.
Even with the bad weather, it didn’t stop us of hitting the roads once it passed. I didn’t have as much time to hunt due to things like shopping and other errands, however, I did get out for the evening walk with Lexi. I found a total of 3 cents during the walk, plus a good amount of retunables for the kitty. The first 2 pennies were found at the car wash on the ground next to a vacuum and in one of the self wash bays. Penny number 3 was found at the high school parking lot. As I was leaving the car wash Michele met up with us (she knows our route well) and we walked up Main Street together though we didn’t come up with any other finds. She did however find 30 cents at school (3 dimes) in the halls (hooray!).
Sidebar – with one day left in the month we are 9 bottles and cans away from breaking the all-time month total of 2043 (Set ironically in Sept, 2005). I wasn’t sure if it was going to happen, but with today’s good luck I would say it’s pretty a much a certainty.
Over and Out!
Money totals for 2006 – 156.50
Money totals since Jan. 2005 – 274.85
Bottle and Can totals for 2006 – 10,875 – 543.75
Bottle and Can totals since Jan. 2005 – 20,897 – 1044.85
