For the past 13 Days Doc and I have been traveling in
Tennessee and then down the Mississippi River on the American Queen. Of course we have been finding coins every day of the journey.
Today we disembarked at the Nottoway Plantation and
Resort. We hopped on a shuttle bus
parked just a few feet from the base of the gangway. Of course we were searching for coins in that
short span.
We arrived at the Plantation at Noon. We toured the Mansion, then walked the grounds. We enjoyed the facility while keeping eyes
open for today’s coin. None were found in the café, conference areas, under the
benches, in the planters, in the parking lot or at the gift shop.
The climate was extremely hot, horribly humid, and blindingly
bright. We were ready to get back to the
boat. The 1:30 p.m. bus was about to
leave. Doc was planning to go. I told
him I could not leave without today’s coin!
He was not thrilled and walked across the street to investigate the
levee (and get away from me). I walked
through the gift shop (again). Did not
want to go out in the heat, but had to. I
started walking toward the mansion and talking to the Penny Angels. “Look, the people at our dinner table, and
even Captain Willits are likely to ask about today’s coin finds. Don’t you want to show them your stuff?”
When I reached the courtyard fountain, a beautiful dragonfly
flew in front of me. I asked it to show
me a coin. Taking coins out of a
fountain is against Penny Protocol, but sometimes people miss the fountain and
perhaps I would find a coin in the planter under the flowers. I followed the dragonfly. Look where it led
me. Not just ONE coin, but a number of
them scattered in the bark! I think
there are 39 Pennies, 1 Nickel, 1 Dime and one foreign coin. Won’t know until I get them cleaned of the
mineral deposits.
It turns out that while Doc was walking along the levee, he
was also asking for Divine Intervention.
(So that he could get back to the boat sooner).
When I showed Doc where I had found the coins, he looked and
found HIS 2₵ worth for today.
COINcidence?
Manifesting? Answer to Prayer? Law of Attraction? What would
YOU call it?

Just ‘cause you’re on vacation doesn’t mean you get to short-change the blog.
You need a coin count (in case you forgot what it looks like, I had to go all the way back to 2/12/15)
Coin Count: 8 Coins 5 (P), 1 (N), 2 (D), = $.30
and labels for: dragonfly, finding rate(needs calculating), coin mine, 2¢ worth, Penny Angels, coincidence, dirt coin, foreign (if it is),and penny protocol.
Happy hunting. It barely got above 70 here on Friday.
