Still In Clean Up Mode....

Today we found 91 cents in change and 42 bottles and cans.

Well were still cleaning up the backyard from the storm last week. We had all kinds of interesting items wash up on shore from the Mousam River now that the water has receded. Things like an old pull-tab beer can, parts of a deck, a tennis ball, an old soap dispenser, you get the idea. Plus, I’ve been boxing up the wood for the past couple of days as well. There was so much of it from the high winds that it’s overwhelming. I’m sure I’ll be continuing to do that for a while, too.

Money Report – Michele picked up one penny on her walk with Lexi in the morning, which she found on Mill Street. The evening walk gave us the remaining 90 cents of our total. We scored 75 cents at the car wash (1 quarter, 1 dime, 6 nickels and 5 pennies). The quarter was found atop the coin slot ledge in one of the self-serve bays while the rest of the coins were collected from the various vacuum areas.

Sidebar – I know I don’t mention them too often, but we find a lot of interesting items during our walks and bike rides. I took a picture of some of the more recent items. I wouldn’t say they’re valuable but certainly worth a look.

Good Night and Good Hunting!
