My 17 year old nephews were
visiting this week. They used to love to
go Penny Finding when they were little.
For this visit I gave the boys a list of a dozen things to do and asked
them to rank the items from 1-5 as far as their interest level. Penny Finding now ranks only a 1. OK.
Understood. We will NOT go Penny Finding.
When asked what they WOULD like to
do to celebrate their joint birthdays, they wanted to try indoor go kart racing. That option was Ranked #5 by both boys.
The boys and other racers were
assigned their cars. At the very last
minute they were asked to hop out and get into other cars. Brandon was placed into the lead car,
Nicholas in the second car, and the other racers behind them.

| Hit for the Cycle and More! |
The boys were getting strapped in when
all of a sudden Brandon jumped out of his car and came over to Uncle Doc and I on
the sidelines. I couldn’t imagine
why? Brandon held out his hand. He showed us a Hit for the Cycle (penny,
nickel, dime and quarter) plus one additional quarter. (25 is my favorite
number)!
It was almost as if the Penny Angels were saying: “OK. You think you are too old to go Penny
Finding any longer? So we will put the
coins where you can not ignore us. We are at your side and will continue being with you”. LOL
Thoughts:
Who is the
driver in YOUR race car and where are you headed?
