There you go! I gave it away in the headline this time! You don't have to read about my penny-finding exploits. You can see how many I gathered, glance at the pictures, and move on to somebody who writes an interesting blog every single day, weekends included, since 2011 (here) and 2005 (my supersecret blog).
TUESDAY, January 5, I was forced to park out in No-Val's-Land at Country Mart. All the spaces up along the building were full. They were meant to be full, I realized, as I walked in from my unfavored parking space, and almost stepped on a PENNY! Left there just for me!
I apologize to the man who came up behind me, having left home with no intention of being ample-rumpused by a crazy Val photographing pennies.
It was a face-down 2010, looking all rustic in its close-up.

FRIDAY, January 8, I stepped into the liquor store to buy a new scratcher for The Pony. I couldn't get it at the Gas Station Chicken Store, because I'd bought a $60 winner there the day before. [Let the record show that The Pony won $50 on the one I bought him this day.]
I only got one picture, since this face-down 2019 pretty penny was so
far under the counter. I hope the guy I ample-rumpused here was not the
same one from Tuesday at Country Mart!

Isn't it exhilirationg to find a coin that has personal significance? One of these days you are going to find a rare coin, a misstamped one that is better than a winning lottery ticket.
ReplyDeleteI love finding my "Pennies from Heaven!" I DO give them a good looking-over, just in case there's something special. So far I've only found wheat pennies, and a buffalo nickel.
DeleteI wonder if people now recognise you as "that ample-rumpused lady who takes random photos of the ground and floors".

I hope they don't post a picture of my ample rumpus! Saying "Do you recognize this woman?" With a notice to beware of me!
