Val Tries to Make CENTS of the Recent Drought

After flowing like springtime mountain meltwater, Val's Future Pennyillionaire watershed has dried up in recent weeks. Only a single drop was available to quench her thirst for pennies.

FRIDAY, April 26, I was twitchy and on-edge from penny-finding withdrawal. The week was not treating me well. As I stood in line at the Backroad's Casey's, waiting to cash in a winning scratcher, I looked left. Good thing, too!

Misers and other penny-pickers had left me no crumbs at any of my regular hangouts throughout the week. But I spied this 1967 heads-up coin almost by accident. I don't normally look for pennies way over there. It must have taken a good roll, or the line was way backed up when it was dropped.

There's my latest Abe Lincoln, understated, with his patina of age preventing a gaudy shine.

I am prepared to continue on my Future Pennyillionaire Fortune quest, even if it's only one penny at a time.
