School Cents

On the sidewalk

Today, Monday, started like any other Monday - alarm rudely awoke me, lunches packed, breakfast eaten.  I was ready to leave for work when my youngest called me - said she was not feeling well, could I come and get her. And so I did.

I signed her out (even though the school day had hardly begun). On the way from the school to my car, I found two coins, mere feet apart.

The first find was a 1998 penny. I spotted it on the sidewalk, not far from a side entrance to the school.  The second find, a 1993 dime, was found partially buried in the dirt by a tree (and yes, the sickly daughter did roll her eyes when I scooped this find).

Total find - 11¢


A buried treasure
