How Sweep It is!

Today we found 80 cents in change and 78 bottles and cans.

Sox Talk – All the hype this weekend was on Barry Bonds, and finally, on Sunday he delivered with a homerun (number 748) that carried into the Giants bullpen. It was all in vain though as the sox completed the sweep of San Francisco. It was the middle of the order that did most of the damage today putting up nine runs and chasing Giant’s starter Matt Morris from the game after 4 innings. Now we head on the road for a tough nine game road swing with Atlanta, San Diego and Seattle. I hope the baseball gods smile favorably on us during this stretch.

Money Report – The coins were flowing on what was a beautiful Sunday. During Michele’s morning walk with Lexi she came up with 24 cents (1 dime, 1 nickel and 9 pennies). She snagged 12 cents at the skateboard park, 11 cents on Pleasant and 1 penny at the high school.

On the evening walk we added 56 more cents to the total (2 dimes, 2 nickels, and 26 pennies). The first 46 cents came from the car wash, all of which, with the exception of penny was scattered about in the various vacuum areas. One penny was recovered from the self-serve bays. Next we found 3 pennies on Water Street, then a penny at the skateboard park, 1 penny in the 7-11 parking lot and a nickel near the Library.
