Bombs Away!

Today we found 38 cents in change and 61 bottles and cans.

Sox Update – The boys broke out the lumber tonight against journeyman Buddy Carlyle of the Braves. He found out pretty quickly, on the very first pitch in fact, that he wasn’t facing the Florida Marlins or Pittsburgh Pirates. J.D. Drew’s leadoff homerun was only the start of Boston’s power surge as they added 4 additional dingers from the likes of Coco Crisp, David Oritz, Manny Ramirez and Eric Hinske. The win secured the series win for the sox and gets them off to a 2-1 start of nine-game road trip, all the while gaining ground on the fading Yankees. Now we get a day off before heading into San Diego, which no doubt will be a tough series.

Money Talk – Michele nailed down the first 26 cents of the day during her morning walk (1 quarter and 1 penny). She found the one penny on Mill, and then spotted a really soiled quarter in some mulch near the church on Pleasant Street. The evening only netted us 12 cents (1 dime and 2 pennies). On our way out we snagged a penny on Main Street. Then, at the 7-11 we found another penny in the parking lot. Finally, next to Key Bank, we picked up a dime that was on the sidewalk.

Good Night and Good Hunting~
