The Mother Load!

Today we found 4.80 in change and 60 bottles and cans.

We had a huge of coin finding, as the third consecutive day of rain seemed to bring us luck. Michele had some good luck on morning walk with Lexi as she came up with 21 cents (2 dimes, 1 penny). The first dime was found at the Depot and the remaining 11 cents was found at the high school.

The evening walk, however, is where we really cashed in. Once again it was a big payday at the car wash donating 4.58 to the cause (multiple quarters, dimes, nickels and hoard of pennies). Most of it was lying on one of the vacuum islands, but some of the coins were also scattered about on the ground. The only other coin of the day was a penny that we found in the 7-11 parking lot. In addition to coins, we also found a small heart-shaped locket and a Phillips screwdriver.

Sox Talk – Kason Gabbard toed the rubber for the sox and got us the series win with a pretty nice outing. It’s big win for the sox, considering that the Yankees moved back Mussina and Pettitte for a circle-the-wagons, last stand, starting tomorrow. If we take one game from the Yankees on their home turf, it’s as good a series win as far as I’m concerned. If we take 2 or 3, watch George start swinging the axe.
