Two Days Of Wind!

Today we found 52 cents in change and 43 bottles and cans.

The last couple of days we’ve been under the spell of a pesky wind. According to the meteorologist we’re between a high to our west and a low to the east, giving us a pressure gradient. At times the old wind’s been howling up a storm to the tune of gusts between 20 to 40 mph. Thankfully the wind died down tonight and tomorrow will be wind free.

Money Report – after getting my run in, I needed to send out a couple of packages to the post office, so I hopped on my bike and headed down. Once completed, I took a short ride around a few areas I had noticed there were bottles and cans to be found. In the retrieval process I also found 12 cents (1 dime and 2 pennies). All of the change was located on the ground at Pleasant Street (cash corner).

On the evening walk we pulled in another 40 cents for the piggy bank. First, we found 38 cents at the car wash (3 dimes and 8 pennies), plus a piece of firewood and a neat-looking marble. All of the coins were in close proximity to the vacuum areas. The last two coins, both pennies, were collected from the skateboard park, and on Main Street in front of Luigi’s. In addition to the previously mentioned finds, we added another superball to our collection. Both the superball and marble jars are becoming quite full!

Good Night and Good Hunting!
