Sustainable PEN(ny)ergy

You knew it couldn't continue at such a rate! Val's Future Pennyillionaire quest has been giving large for a few weeks. Now it's time for a respite/siesta/break. At least it wasn't a shut-out.

THURSDAY, August 18, I stopped by the Liquor Store for scatchers. A couple of them being "payment" to The Pony for driving Hick to a medical procedure at 6:00 a.m. on his day off. The Pony would have done it for free, but I hate to monopolize his time.

The Liquor Store was as deserted as I've seen it, which includes mornings at 7:00 in the days when we drove past it on the way to school! This time I was there around 10:45. Yeah. I had to get to town before Hick returned, and I had an invalid to supervise.

 

As I rounded T-Hoe's front end, I was greeted by a penny in my path. It's there. Really. In the midline of the picture, like if you draw a straight line down from that yellow sign on the building.  Down about mid-shadow from the truck that was parked next to me.

 

It was a face-down 2021 penny, shining in the sun.
