This morning as Doc and I headed to
breakfast, I delivered an invitation to a neighbor for the upcoming
Neighborhood potluck. There was a
nickel as I hopped out of the van!
Strange place for it to be found.
That started the day well.
(Coin #1)
We had breakfast at a local airport
diner (Maniac Mike’s), then stopped at the bank and post office (to mail out
more invitations).
Doc asked me where I wanted to stop
to fuel the van? I replied, “a
station which will have coins for me”.
While Doc fuelled the vehicle, I searched the pumping area, then the
convenience store. I only found one penny. (Coin #2). The
receipt function on the gas pump was not working, so Doc had to go inside the
store to obtain one. He emerged
with a receipt - as well as a nickel, dime and quarter! His question, “So why did you only take
the penny?” Because I did not see
the other coins? Hit for the Cycle
in ONE spot! (Coins #3-5)

| Oldies, but Goodies |
We proceeded to the Pomona house
where we took down the artifacts from Doc’s office wall. After that we headed home. At noon a billboard displayed a
temperature reading of 101 F. We
reassembled the collage in Doc’s new office. Looks great to me.
Kids today don’t’ even know what a slide rule or abacus is!

| Pedicure Time |
This morning Sparky caught his dew
claw Doc’s sock, so it was time for nail trimming (it had been three
months). We took two of the dogs
to the pet store and BOTH of them behaved well this time! Miracles never cease.
After that Doc went into recovery
mode. (He watched a football game
for a few hours). I filed away
loan documents and other projects.
The evening was spent working on
more invitations, RSVPs and details for the upcoming functions.
Total: 5 Coins P (1), N (2), D (1), Q
(1) = $0.46
