Interesting Tidbit....
Today we found 50 cents in change 147 bottles and cans.
So I was surfing around the web today looking for any interesting information and I came across this interesting thread from the New Scientist. He goes on to talk about aluminum cans and how quickly they can be recycled and reused, not to mention using on a fraction of the original cost (and energy) to do it. It’s an interesting read.
Money Update – Michele contributed two cents to the cause during her morning walk with Lexi. The first penny was found on Allen and the second on Pleasant. A little later I was out on the mountain for a ride and came up with 11 cents (1 dime and 1 penny) in the 7-11 parking lot. On the evening walk I added 27 cents to total. The first 26 (1 quarter, and 1 penny) came at the car wash, and then I found a single penny at the skateboard park. Michele added the final dime, which she found at school.
Good Night and Good Hunting~
